1 13RETHREN in Christ, and well-beloved, -U To Jesus and his servants dear, Enter, and show yourselves approved ; Enter, and find that God is here. 2 Welcome from earth : lo, the right hand Of fellowship to you we give ! With open hearts and hands we stand, And you in Jesu's name receive. 3 Say, are your hearts resolved as ours ? Then let them burn with sacred love ; Then let them taste the heavenly powers, Partakers of the joys above. 4 Jesu, attend, thyself reveal ! Are we not met in thy great name ? Thee in the midst we wait to feel, We wait to catch the spreading flame, 5 Thou God that answerest by fire, The Spirit of burning now impart ; And let the flames of pure desire Rise from the altar of our heart. 6 Truly our fellowship below With thee and with the Father is : In thee eternal life we know, And heaven's unutterable bliss. 7 In part we only know thee here, But wait thy coming from above ; And we shall then behold thee near, And we shall all be lost in love t>oU Miscellaneous Hymns.
