Lyrics |
1. Saviour, on thy word relying,
We ahve gathered in thy name;
Thou hast told us ev'ry promise
We by simple faith may claim.
Chorus:
Come, oh, come, thou gracious Spirit,
Come, oh come, in power and might;
Consecrate anew, we pray thee,
Consecrate our souls tonight.
2. Lo, our gift is on the altar,
Let the fire consume its dross;
Bind, oh bind our hearts affections
Closer, closer to the cross.
3. More in earnest in our labor,
More united let us be;
Thou the vine and we the branches,
Make and keep us one in thee.
4. Thus together may we journey
To our Father's home above;
Patient, faithful persevering--
Armed with zeal and filled with love.
