Lord, when before Thy throne we meet,
Thy goodness to adore,
From Heaven, th' eternal mercy-seat,
On us Thy blessing pour,
And make our inmost souls to be
An habitation meet for Thee !
The Body for our ransom given ;
The Blood in mercy shed ;
With thiu immortal food from Heaven,
Lord ! let our souls be fed !
And, as we round Thy table kneel,
Help us Thy quickening grace to feel!
Be Thou, O Holy Spirit, nigh !
Accept the humble prayer,
The contrite soul's repentant sigh,
The sinner's heartfelt tear !
And let our adoration rise,
As fragrant incense, to the skies !
