Hymnal: The Hartford Selection of Hymns from the Most Approved Authors #CCLIX (1799) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Publication Date: 1799 First Line: Brethren, belov'd for Jesus' sake Lyrics: 1 Brethren, belov'd for Jesu's sake, A hearty welcome here receive; May we together now partake The joys which he alone can give! 2 May he, by whose kind care we meet, Send his good Spirit from above, Make our communications sweet, And cause our hearts to burn with love1 3 Forgotten be each worldly theme, When thus we meet to pray and praise, We only wish to speak of him, And tell the wonders of his grace. 4 We'll talk of all he did and said, His suff'ring and his dying love, The path he mark'd for us to tread, And how he triumphs now above. 5 Thus as the moments pass away, We'll love, and wonder, and adore; Then hasten on the glorious day, When we shall meet to part no more.
