Assembled, Lord, at Thy behest,
We wait Thy voice to hear;
O come and bless
this hallowed feast—
In spirit now draw near.
Draw near, yea, linger in our midst;
Thy waiting saints inspire
With thoughts of Thine unfailing love,
Grant this our soul’s desire.
Such love! surpassing human thought.
That Thou, blest Lamb of God,
Should’st bear sin’s curse,
and interpose
Thine own atoning blood.
With hearts adoring thus we view
Thy table fitly spread;
Love’s sweet memorial feast to Thee,
Our risen, glorious Head.
O help us, Lord, while gathered here,
That we none else may see;
Keep Thou our thoughts
graced with Thy love,
And wholly stayed on Thee.
