Appointed by thee
We meet in thy name,
And meekly agree
To follow the Lamb,
To trace thy example,
The world to disdain,
And constantly trample
On pleasure and pain.
Rejoicing, in hope,
we humbly go on,
And daily take up
The pledge of our crown;
In doing and bearing
The will of our Lord,
We still are preparing
To meet our reward.
O Jesus, appear!
No longer delay
To sanctify here,
And bear us away,
The end of our meeting
On earth let us see,
Triumphantly sitting
In glory with thee!
