Lord, we meet to seek Thy face

1.Lord, we meet to seek Thy face
And in one accord to pray;
We a holy priesthood are,
Waiting on Thee here today.
Here together we would pray,
Touch the highest and the best,
Till our spirits mingled are
And Thy Church is built and blest.
2.As true priests we long to be,
With our spirit sense Thy will,
Thus to serve before Thee here
That Thy plan Thou may fulfill.
3.To the holiest place we come,'
Now to touch Thy throne of grace,
By the inner sense to pray
And Thy Spirit's flow to trace.
4.From Thy throne of grace to me
Rivers of Thy grace proceed;
Thus my spirit is refreshed,
Helping me in time of need.
5.May our prayers expression give
To Thy Spirit's mind alone;
Praying not by our desire,
But according to Thine own.
6.Though with temporal matters pressed,
Which we fain would bring to Thee,
Rather than Thy care to seek,
We would here Thy channel be.
7.Here we seek Thy list'ning ear,
May Thy living water flow;
When Thy grace does satisfy,
Only then Thy work we'll know.
