The New Sabbath School Hosanna ‎#114b

114b. Lord, fix our wandering thoughts

1 Lord, fix our wandering thoughts,
Thy sacred word to hear
With deep attention and with love,
With reverence and with fear.

2 Let us remember still
That God is present here;
And let our hearts be all engaged
When we draw near in prayer.

3 And where the humble notes
Of praise our lips employ,
Give us to taste the sweet delight
Which saints in heaven enjoy.

4 Oh, may thy sacred word
Sink deep in every breast,
And let us all by grace be brought
To Christ, the promised rest.
