Is not our life with hourly mercies crowned? Does not Thine arm encircle us around? 3 Alas! unworthy of Thy boundless love, Too oft with careless feet from Thee we rove; But now encouraged by Thy voice, we come, Returning sinners, to a Father's home. Amen. 4 O by that name in which all fullness dwells, O by that love which ev'ry love excels, O by that blood so freely shed for sin, Open blest Mercy's gate, and take us in. Amen.

Oh, choose it for Thy fixed abode And keep it from all error free! 2 Here, when Thy people seek Thy face And dying sinners pray to live, Hear Thou in heav'n, Thy dwelling place; And when Thou hearest, Lord, forgive. 3 Here, when Thy messengers proclaim The blessed Gospel of Thy Son, Still, by the pow'r of His great name Be mighty signs and wonders done. 4 When children's voices raise the song, "Hosanna to the heavenly King!" Let heaven with earth the strain prolong. Hosanna! let the angels sing. 5 Thy glory never hence depart. Yet choose not, Lord, this house alone; Thy kingdom come to every heart, In every bosom fix Thy throne. Amen. Scripture: 2 Chronicles 6:20 Used With Tune: MENDON

Thither, onward thither, In the Spirit's might, Lovers of your country, Forward into light! [Refrain] Used With Tune: ST. ALBAN
