190. We Are Gathered for Thy Blessing

1 We are gathered for Thy blessing,
We will wait upon our God;
We will trust in Him who loved us,
And who bought us with His blood.

Refrain:
Spirit, now melt and move
All of our hearts with love,
Breathe on us from above
With old-time pow'r.

2 We will glory in Thy power,
We will sing of wondrous grace;
In our midst as Thou hast promised,
Come, O come and take Thy place. (Refrain)

3 Bring us low in prayer before Thee,
And with faith our souls inspire,
Till we claim by faith the promise
Of the Holy Ghost and fire. (Refrain)

Amen.
