8- We Gather Together
Worship: Adoration and Praise
1
- We gather together to ask the Lord's blessing;
- He chastens and hastens His will to make known;
- The wicked oppressing now cease from distressing,
- Sing praises to His name; He forgets not His own.
2
- Beside us to guide us, our God with us joining,
- Ordaining, maintaining His kingdom divine;
- So from the beginning the fight we were winning;
- Thou, Lord, wast at our side; all glory be Thine!
3
- We all do extol Thee, Thou Leader triumphant,
- And pray that Thou still our Defender wilt be.
- Let Thy congregation escape tribulation;
- Thy name be ever praised! O Lord, make us free!
