We Gather Together

We ga­ther to­ge­ther to ask the Lord’s bless­ing;

He chast­ens and hast­ens His will to make known.

The wick­ed op­press­ing now cease from dis­tress­ing.

Sing prais­es to His name; He for­gets not His own.

Beside us to guide us

our God with us join­ing

Ordaining

main­tain­ing His king­dom di­vine;

So from the be­gin­ning the fight we were win­ning;

Thou

Lord

were at our side

all glo­ry be Thine!

We all do ex­tol Thee

Thou lead­er tri­umph­ant

And pray that Thou still our de­fend­er will be.

Let Thy con­gre­ga­tion es­cape tri­bu­la­tion;

Thy name be ev­er praised! O Lord

make us free!
