| 2 | And have not we beheld Thy face? Thy visits crowned the means of grace; O come again in kindness, Lord, With all the joy Thy smiles afford. |
||
| 3 | Enter our hearts, Redeemer blest, Enter, Thou ever-honoured Guest; Enter, and make our hearts Thine own, Thy house, Thy temple and Thy throne. |
