its binding blessing more Round each with all, and all with thee. 4 Send down its angel to our side-- Send in its calm upon the breast; For we would know no other guide, And we can need no other rest. 35.

Invoking a Blessing. 1 Lord! when thy people seek thy face, And dying sinners pray to live, Hear thou in heaven, thy dwelling-place, And, when thou hearest, O forgive! 2 Here, when thy messengers proclaim The blessed Gospel of thy Son, Still, by the power of his great name, Be mighty signs and wonders done. 3 But will indeed Jehovah deign Here to abide, no transient guest?
