XXV.—For the Lord's Day Evening.
1Lord, how delightful 'tis to see
A whole assembly worship thee!
At once they sing, at once they pray,
They hear of heaven and learn the way.
2I have been there, and still would go,
'Tis like a little heaven below;
Nor all my pleasures, nor my play,
Shall tempt me to forget that day.
3O write upon my mem'ry, Lord,
The test and doctrines of thy Word,
That I may break thy laws no more,
But love thee better than before.
4With thoughts of Christ, and things divine
Fill up this foolish heart of mine;
That, hoping pardon through his blood,
I may lie down, and wake with God.
