lyrics
In the Name of God the Father,
In the Name of God the Son,
In the Name of God the Spirit,
One in Three, and Three in One;
In the Name which highest Angels
Speak not ere they veil their face,
Crying, Holy, Holy, Holy,"
Come we to this sacred place.
Lo, in wondrous condescension,
Jesus seeks His altar-throne;
Though in lowly symbols hidden,
Faith and love His Presence own.
When the Lord His temple visits,
Let the listening earth be still;
May the Spirit's sweet indwelling
Each believing heart fulfill.
Here, in Figure represented,
See the Passion once again;
Here behold the Lamb most Holy,
As for our redemption slain;
Here the Saviour's Body broken,
Here the Blood which Jesus shed,
Now the offer of communion,
Into lasting joy be led.
Here shall highest praise be offered,
Here shall meekest prayer be poured,
Here, with body, soul, and spirit,
God Incarnate be adored.
Holy Jesus, for Thy coming
May Thy love our hearts prepare;
Thine we pray would have them wholly,
Enter, Lord, and tarry there.
