Hymn

In Thy Name, O Lord, Assembling

Metre 8.7.8.7.4.7.

In Thy name, O Lord, assembling,

We, Thy people, now draw near:

Teach us to rejoice with trembling;

Speak, and let Thy servants hear;

Hear with meekness, Hear with meekness,

Hear Thy word with godly fear.

While our days on earth are lengthened,

May we give them, Lord, to Thee;

Cheered by hope, and daily strengthened,

May we run, nor weary be,

Till Thy glory Till Thy glory

Without cloud in heaven we see.

There, in worship, purer, sweeter,

Thee Thy people shall adore,

Tasting of enjoyment greater

Than they could conceive before

Full enjoyment, Full enjoyment,

Full and pure for evermore.

Amen.
