8 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 praises to His name; He forgets not His own.

Beside us to guide us our God with us joining
Ordaining maintaining His kingdom divine;
So from the beginning the fight we were winning;
Thou Lord wast at our side; all glory be Thine!

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!
