[We lift our hearts (for God is here)]

Now therefore are we all here present before, &c. —x. 33.

We lift our hearts (for God is here),
Assembled in His sight appear,
And listen to the word,
Whate'er He now vouchsafes to give,
And from the servant's mouth receive
As spoken from the Lord.

249

Jehovah sends by whom He will,
And let Him now His truths reveal
His utmost counsel show,
Bless'd with a ready, resolute mind
We'll do the things by Him enjoin'd,
And practise all we know.
