Author: Amos R. Wells Hymnal: The New Christian Hymnal #18 (1929) Meter: 12.8.12.8 First Line: Thou delightest, O Lord, when Thy children draw near Lyrics: 1 Thou delightest, O Lord, when Thy children draw near
To worship and praise and confess;
Now banish our sorrow, our doubt and our fear;
Be present to guide and to bless.
2 Touch our ears with Thy finger, and then we shall hear
Soft voices that speak from Thy Word;
Touch our eyes into seeing, and then shall appear
The glory of Jesus, our Lord.
3 Be the words of our tongues, and the theme of our song;
Be our purpose, our praise, and our prayer;
And be to us here what Thou art to the throng
Of angels that worship Thee there. Topics: Worship Languages: English Tune Title: [Thou delightest, O Lord, when Thy children draw near]
