1 Gathered in Thy name, Lord Jesus,
Losing sight of all but Thee,
O what joy Thy presence gives us,
Calling up our hearts to Thee!
2 Loved with love which knows no measure,
Save the Father's love to Thee,
Blessed Lord, our hearts would treasure
All the Father's thoughts of Thee.
3 All His joy, His rest, His pleasure —
All His deep delight in Thee —
Lord, Thy heart alone can measure
What Thy Father found in Thee.
4 How He set His love upon Thee —
Called Thee His beloved Son;
Yet for us He did not spare Thee,
By Thy death our life was won.
5 O the joy, the wondrous singing,
When we see Thee as Thou art!
Thy blest name, Lord Jesus, bringing
Sweetest music to God's heart.
6 Notes of gladness, songs unceasing,
Hymns of everlasting praise,
Psalms of glory, joy increasing,
Through God's endless day of days.
