Representative lyrics
English (Original Language)
1. Sweet is the hour when thus we meet Around the sacred board, And each the other kindly greet While worshipping the Lord, And each the other kindly greet While worshipping the Lord.
2. Sweet are the songs we gladly sing In harmony and love, The echo of diviner things Heard in the courts above, The echo of diviner things Heard in the courts above.
3. Lord, may we have Thy Spirit pure To hallow every deed, That when we part we may be sure We have been blest indeed, That when we part we may be sure We have been blest indeed.
