593. O Jesus, in this solemn hour

1 O Jesus, in this solemn hour,
Be with Thy people here;
Let Thine authority and power
To rule Thy Church appear.

2 O may the choice which we have made
By Thee be ratified;
Thy servants' fitness be displayed,
As they are further tried.

3 With faithfulness may they fulfil
The office in their hands,
And seek to know and do Thy will,
In all that will demands.
