1. Come, thou compassionate Savior,
Meet with us, Master and Lord,
Be in the midst of thy people,
Gathered with one accord.
Chorus:
Speak, Lord, thy servants will hear thee,
Come, the heart’s trust to reward;
Here, in thy temple, behold us,
Gathered with one accord.
2. Many the burden we carry,
Ev’ry heart knoweth its own;
Many our songs of rejoicing,
Reaching the heav’nly throne.
3. Lord, thou hast searched us and known us,
Hearts are all open to thee;
Now, in one fervent petition
We would this hour agree.
4. Grant us the gift of thy Spirit,
Come and refresh us, O Lord;
Make thyself known to thy children,
Gathered with one accord.
