218--As gathered in Thy precious name,

As gathered in Thy precious name,

218

	1.	As gathered in Thy precious name,
		This table we surround,
		Thy death, Lord Jesus, to proclaim,
		O may our praise abound.
	2.	We give what from Thee we receive,
		For all we have is Thine-
		O may each heart with joy believe,
		And echo "Thine is mine!"
	3.	Grace, grace it was that brought Thee down;
		Love shone in all Thy ways;
		Through death Thine is the Victor's crown,
		And Thine the endless praise.
	4.	We, here, in silence, or in song,
		Together worship Thee;
		Before our God we shall ere long
		Give praise eternally.
	5.	Lord Jesus Christ, Thou comest soon-
		Today Thy death we show;
		In light, eclisping sun at noon,
		Its myst'ry we shall know.
