Lord, how delightful ’tis to see A whole assembly worship Thee! At once they sing, at once they pray; They hear of heaven, and learn the way. I have been there, and still would go; ’Tis like a little heaven below: Not all my pleasures, nor my play, Shall tempt me to forget this day. O write upon my memory, Lord, The texts and doctrines of thy Word, That I may break thy laws no more, But love thee better than before. With thoughts of Christ and things divine, Fill up this foolish heart of mine; That, hoping pardon through his blood, I may lie down and wake with God. |
