Christian Worship—How Inviting

Christian wor­ship—how in­vit­ing

Is the so­cial pray­ing band!

Happy con­cert thrice de­light­ing

Bound to Ca­naan’s ho­ly land.

See how joy­ful they as­sem­ble

At the con­se­crat­ed hour!

How they Heav­en’s host re­sem­ble

While the God Most High ad­ore!

See them in sweet con­cert mov­ing

Each their hum­ble part ful­fill!

Bound to love

each oth­er lov­ing

Thus they do the Sav­ior’s will.

How they bow in ad­or­ation

Low be­fore Je­ho­vah’s throne

Giving hon­or and sal­va­tion

To the High and Ho­ly One.

Now they rise in hymns sym­pho­ni­ous—

All as one their spir­its rise;

Sweep the gold­en harps har­mo­ni­ous

Strung by ser­aphs in the skies.

Now they pour out fer­vent pray­er—

Plead the all-aton­ing blood.

Father

Son

and Spir­it’s there;

’Tis in truth the house of God.
