We Gather Together
Author: Anon. Appears in 212 hymnals First Line: We gather together to ask the Lord's blessing Lyrics: 1 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.
2 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!
3 We all do extol thee, thou Leader in battle,
And pray that thou still our Defender will be.
Let thy congregation escape tribulation;
Thy name be ever praised! O Lord, make us free! Used With Tune: [We gather together to ask the Lord's blessing]

At Thy Feet, Our God and Father
Author: J. D. Burns, 1823-1864 Appears in 78 hymnals Lyrics: 1 At Thy feet, our God and Father,
Who has blest us all our days,
We with grateful hearts would gather,
To begin this hour with praise;
Praise for light so brightly shining
On our steps from Heaven above;
Praise for mercies, daily twining
Round us golden cords of love.
2 Jesus, for thy love most tender,
On the cross for sinners shown,
We would praise thee and surrender
All our hearts to be thine own.
With so blest a friend provided,
We upon our way would go,
Sure of being safely guided,
Guarded well from every foe.
3 Every day will be the brighter
When thy gracious face we see;
Every burden will be lighter
When we know it comes from thee,
Spread thy love’s broad banner o’er us,
Give us strength to serve and wait,
Till the glory breaks before us
Through the City’s open gate. Used With Tune: BETHANY (English)

Jesus Is Risen
Author: Theodore C. Pease Appears in 7 hymnals First Line: ‘Jesus is risen!’ Lift up your glad voices Lyrics: 1 ‘Jesus is risen!’ Lift up your glad voices!
Night’s dreary shadows are vanished away;
Hark, at the tidings the wide earth rejoices!
‘Jesus is risen, is risen today!’
2 Death’s iron bondage his strong hands have broken;
‘Come,’ speaks the angle, ‘behold where he lay!
Faithful the promise his own lips have spoken:
Jesus is risen, is risen today!’
3 Fair by his open grave blossoms the garden;
Life follows death, bloom is born of decay,
Song after sorrow, and peace after pardon:
‘Jesus is risen, is risen today!’
4 Light dawns in darkness, and comfort in sadness;
Death shall no longer our spirits dismay;
Tears turn to praises, and griefs change to gladness:
‘Jesus is risen, is risen today!’ Used With Tune: ARIMATHAEA
Jesus Is Risen
From Age to Age They Gather
Author: Frederick L. Hosmer Appears in 34 hymnals First Line: From age to age they gather, all the brave of heart and strong Lyrics: 1 From age to age they gather, all the brave of heart and strong;
In the strife of truth with error, of the right against the wrong;
I can see their gleaming banner, I can hear their triumph song;
The truth is marching on!
2 ‘In this sign we conquer,’ ’tis the symbol of our faith,
Made holy by the might of love triumphant over death;
‘He finds his life who loseth it,’ forevermore it saith:
The right is marching on!
3 The earth is circling onward out of shadow into light;
The stars keep watch above our way, however dark the night;
For every martyr’s stripe there glows a bar of morning bright;
And love is marching on!
4 Lead on, O cross of martyr faith, with thee is victory;
Shine forth, O stars and reddening dawn, the full day yet shall be;
On earth His kingdom cometh, and with joy our eyes shall see,
Our God is marching on. Used With Tune: HOSMER
