A Prayer for a church newly organized.

LORD, bless thy saints assembled here In solemn cov'nant now to join; Unite them in thy holy fear, And in thy love their hearts combine.

Oh give this church a large increase Of such as thou wilt own and bless; Lord, fill their hearts with joy and peace, And clothe them with thy right'ousness.

Make her a garden wall'd with grace, A temple built for God below, Where thy blest saints may see thy face, And fruits of thy bless'd Spirit grow.
