Christ inviting and the church answering the invitationA
-
SSB
-
Hark the Redeemer from on highC
Sweetly invites his fav'rites nighC
From caves of darkness and of doubtD
He gently speaks and calls us outD
-
My dove who hidest in the rockE
Thine heart almost with sorrow brokeF
Lift up thy face forget thy fearG
And let thy voice delight mine earH
-
Thy voice to me sounds ever sweetI
My graces in thy count'nance meetI
Though the vain world thy face despiseB
'Tis bright and comely in mine eyesB
-
Dear Lord our thankful heart receivesB
The hope thine invitation givesB
To thee our joyful lips shall raiseB
The voice of prayer and of praiseB
-
I am my Love's and he is mineJ
Our hearts our hopes our passions joinK
Nor let a motion nor a wordL
Nor thought arise to grieve my LordM
-
My soul to pastures fair he leadsB
Amongst the lilies where he feedsB
Amongst the saints whose robes are whiteN
Washed in his blood is his delightN
-
Till the day break and shadows fleeO
Till the sweet dawning light I seeO
Thine eyes to me ward often turnP
Nor let my soul in darkness mournQ
-
Be like a hart on mountains greenR
Leap o'er the hills of fear and sinS
Nor guilt nor unbelief divideT
My Love my Savior from my sideT

Isaac Watts
