<p>Bless&egrave;d Jesus, at Thy Word<br>
We are gathered all to hear Thee;<br>
Let our hearts and souls be stirred<br>
Now to seek and love and fear Thee,<br>
By Thy teachings sweet and holy,<br>
Drawn from earth to love Thee solely.</p>
<p>All our knowledge, sense and sight<br>
Lie in deepest darkness shrouded,<br>
Til Thy Spirit breaks our night<br>
With the beams of truth unclouded.<br>
Thou alone to God canst win us;<br>
Thou must work all good within us.</p>
<p>Glorious Lord, Thyself impart!<br>
Light of light, from God proceeding,<br>
Open Thou our ears and heart;<br>
Help us by Thy Spirit&#8217;s pleading;<br>
Hear the cry Thy people raises;<br>
Hear and bless our prayers and praises.</p>
<p> Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,<br>
Praise to Thee and adoration!<br>
Grant that we Thy Word may trust<br>
And obtain true consolation<br>
While we here below must wander,<br>
Till we sing Thy praises yonder.</p>
