Jesus, we Thy promise claim,
We are gathered in Thy name;
In the midst do Thou appear;
Manifest Thy presence here.
Sanctify us, Lord, and bless;
Breathe Thy Spirit, give Thy peace;
Come and dwell within each heart;
Light, and life, and joy impart.
Give to us thy humble mind,
Patient, fearless, just and kind;
Meek and lowly let us be,
Full of goodness, full of thee.
Still, O Lord, our faith increase,
Give to us the fruits of peace,
Utterly abolish sin,
Write thy law of love within.
Hence may all our actions flow,
Love, the proof that Christ we know;
Mutual love the token be,
Lord, that we have walked with thee!
Love, thine image, love impart,
Stamp its impress on each heart,
Only love to us be given,
Lord, we ask no other heaven.
Make us all in Thee complete,
Make us all for glory meet—
Meet t’appear before Thy sight;
Partners with the saints in light!
---Alternative verses---
Jesus, we Thy promise claim,
We are met in Thy dear name;
In the midst do Thou appear;
Manifest Thy presence here.
Sanctify us, Lord, and bless;
Breathe Thy Spirit, give Thy peace;
Thou thyself within us move;
Make our feast a feast of love!.
