GATHERED to Thy Name, Lord Jesus,
In the enjoyment of Thy love,
Where Thy presence is assured us,
We do here its blessing, prove.
Gathered to Thy Name, Lord Jesus,
Thou art God’s Anointed One,
Here the Father’s voice assures us.
This is My beloved Son!
Gathered to Thy Name, Lord Jesus,
We confess we’re in the Son;
Of Thy body fellow-members,
By the Spirit joined in one.
Gathered to Thy Name, Lord Jesus,
Resurrection songs we sing,
Where Thy holy priesthood gathers,
Where Thy saints their praises bring.
Gathered to Thy Name, Lord Jesus,
We are ransomed by Thy blood;
‘Tis Thy precious death that freed us,
From our sin’s accursed load.
Gathered to Thy Name, Lord Jesus,
At Thy table is our place,
Where we break the bread before us,
Drink the cup that speaks Thy grace.
Gathered to Thy Name, Lord Jesus,
We remember here Thy love;
Love that gave Himself to save us,
Now enthroned with God above.
Gathered to Thy Name, Lord Jesus,
We expect Thee soon to come;
Here we wait for Thee to fetch us
Hence, to our dear Father’s home.
By the late A.P.C.
