Jesus, we look to Thee
Thy promised presence claim;
Thou in the midst of us shall be
Assembled in Thy Name
Thy Name salvation is
Which here we come to prove;
Thy Name is life, and health, and peace
And everlasting love
Not in the name of pride
Or selfishness we meet;
From nature's paths we turn aside
And worldly thoughts forget
We meet, the grace to take
Which Thou hast freely giv'n;
We meet on earth for Thy dear sake
That we may meet in Heav'n
Present we know Thou art;
But, O, Thyself reveal!
Now, Lord, let ev'ry waiting heart
The mighty comfort feel
O may Thy quickening voice
The d**h of sin remove;
And bid our inmost souls rejoice
In hope of perfect love
