Dear Savior! on thy people smile,

And come, according to thy word.

2 From busy scenes we now retreat,

That we may here converse with thee:

Ah! Lord! behold us at thy feet;--

Let this the gate of heaven be.

3 Chief of ten thousand! now appear,

That we by faith may see thy face;

Oh! speak, that we thy voice may hear

And let thy presence fill this place.
