Hymn 28
In Thy Great Name
CONDESCENSION, C.M.
In Thy great name, O Lord, we come
To worship at Thy feet;
Oh, pour Thy Holy Spirit down
On all that now shall meet.
We come to hear Jehovah speak,
To hear the Savior's voice;
Thy face and favor, Lord, we seek;
Now make our hearts rejoice.
Teach us to pray, and praise, and hear,
And understand Thy word;
To feel Thy blissful presence near,
And trust our living Lord.
Let sinners now Thy goodness prove,
And saints rejoice in Thee;
Let rebels be subdued by love,
And to the Savior flee.
