Hymn 16

On Public Worship.

S.M.

LORD, at thy sacred feet, Joyful would we appear; Within thy earthly temple meet, To see thy glory here.

We come to worship thee, For thou art God alone; In humble pray'r to bend the knee, Before thy holy throne.

Thy word is our delight, Thy truth will make us free; 'Tis from thyself, a heav'nly light, It leads our souls to thee.

Thy goodness we behold, While in thy presence, Lord; Thy wondrous truth and love unfold The treasures of thy word.

In all our meetings here, Our souls are bless'd with good; Thou wilt to waiting minds be near, And give thy children food.

So will we render praise To thee, the God of love; With pleasure walk in all thy ways, Till we shall meet above.
