Winkworth , 1827-78; Unknown Hymnal: ELH1996 #1 (1996) Meter: 7.8.7.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Blessèd Jesus, at Thy Word We are gathered all to hear Thee; Let our hearts and souls be stirred Now to seek and love and fear Thee; By thy teachings, sweet and holy, Drawn from earth to love Thee solely. 2 All our knowledge, sense and sight Lie in deepest darkness shrouded Till Thy Spirit breaks our night With the beams of truth unclouded; Thou alone to God canst win us; Thou must work all good within us. 3 Glorious Lord, Thyself impart, Light of Light, from God proceeding; Open Thou our ears and heart, Help us by Thy Spirit’s pleading. Hear the cry Thy people raises; Hear and bless our prayers and praises. 4 Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, Praise to Thee and adoration! Grant that we Thy Word may trust, And obtain true consolation While we here below must wander, Till we sing Thy praises yonder. Topics: Invocation Languages: English Tune Title: LIEBSTER JESU

Thus we honor God on high And ourselves are blessed thereby; Wherein our true good remains. 2 In Jesus' name We praise our God on high, He blesses them who spread abroad His fame, And we do His will thereby. E'er hath the Lord Done great things by His Word, And still doth bare His arm His wonders to perform; Hence we should in ev'ry clime Magnify His name sublime, Who doth shield us from all harm. 3 In Jesus' name We live and we will die; If then we live, His love we will proclaim; If we die, we gain thereby. In Jesus' name, Who from heav'n to us came, We shall again rise To meet Him in the skies, When at last, saved by His grace, We shall see Him face to face, Live with Him in Paradise.
