Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.214

First Line: Coming, coming, we are coming ,

Coming, coming, we are coming
To Thy temple, gracious Lord,
To receive the blessed teaching
Of Thy pure and perfect Word ;
Meekly would we learn our duty,
Learn it kneeling at Thy feet,
While a radiance from Thy glory
Covers all the Mercy-seat.

2 Singing, singing, we are singing
Of Thy wondrous love so free,
How it floweth ever onward
Like a vast and mighty sea ;
And our souls mount up with gladness,
While we swell the lofty strain,
Glory, glory, hallelujah
To the Lamb for sinners slain !

3 Praying, praying, we are praying
That Thy Spirit, like a dove,
May descend with gifts of mercy
From Thy gracious hand above.
Lord, we ask that, by Thy watch-care,
We may all protected be.
Every hand be quick to labour,
And our hearts be stayed on Thee.
