We Gather Together - lyrics
We Gather Together
1. We gather together to ask the Lord’s blessing; he chastens and hastens his will to make known. The wicked oppressing now cease from distressing. Sing praised to his name; he forgets not his own.
2. Beside us to guide us, our God with us joining, ordaining, maintaining his kingdom divine; so from the beginning the fight we are winning; thou Lord, wast at our side, all glory be thine!
3. We all do extol thee, thou leader triumphant, and pray that thou still our defender wilt be. Let thy congregation escape tribulation; thy name be ever praised! O Lord, make us free!
Words: Nederlandtsch Gedenckclanck, 1626 translated by Theodore Baker, 1894
