Lord, how delightful 'tis to see
A whole assembly worship Thee!
At once they sing, at once they pray;
They hear of heav'n, and learn the way.

I have been there, and still would go,
'Tis like a little heav'n below;
Not all my pleasure and my play
Shall tempt me to forget this day.

Oh, write upon my mem'ry Lord,
The texts and doctrines of Thy Word;
That I may break Thy laws no more,
But love Thee better than before.

With thoughts of Christ, and things divine
Fill up this foolish heart of mine;
That, hoping pardon thro' His blood,
I may lie down and wake with God.
