In The Hallowed Hour

 

"God be merciful and gracious to us and bless us and cause His face to 
 shine upon us and among us. Selah pause and calmly think of that!"
(Psalm 67:1)

Jesus stand among us   In Thy risen power;

Let this time of worship   Be a hallowed hour.

Breathe the Holy Spirit   Into every heart;

Bid the fears and sorrows  From each soul depart.

Thus with quickened footsteps  We pursue our way,

Watching for the dawning  Of each eternal day.
