Olson, 1870 - 1958 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #270 (1958) Meter: 8.8.6.8.8 Hymnal Title: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America Lyrics: 1 A voice, a heavenly voice I hear!
Arise, O soul, come and draw near
To hallow and revere
The day the Lord thy God doth make,
And of the bread of life partake.
2 I come, dear Jesus, at thy word,
A guest unworthy to thy board,
My Saviour and my Lord.
O clothe me with thy righteousness,
My soul with thy salvation bless! A-men.
3 O Lord, who my Redeemer art,
Come thou and purify my heart.
From thee I'll ne'er depart,
But wheresoe'er thou leadest me
In constant faith I'll follow thee.
Amen. Topics: Sacraments and Rites Holy Communion Languages: English Tune Title: ST. JAMES' STOCKHOLM
