Gathered to Thy name, Lord Jesus,
And Thy name alone;
This our true and only Center,
None beside we own.
By thy Holy Spirit gathered,
Objects of His care;
Not a matter of our choosing,
He has brought us there.
Thus with others brought together,
Be they two or three;
We have Thine own word which tells us,
Thou wilt with us be.
Other names and other centers,
We would lay side;
‘Tis enough that Thou art with us,
We have naught beside.
Keep us Lord, in days of ruin,
Gathered thus to Thee,
In the path of separation,
Till Thy face we see.
