THIS IS THE BLESSED PLACE
Don Fortner
(Tune: Crown Him With Many Crowns #62 SMD)
This is the blessed place
Where
our Redeemer comes,
To show the wonders of His grace
And
meet His ransomed ones.
We've
gathered in Christ's name.
(He is
our Mercy-Seat!)
We turn
our hopeful eyes to Him,
And
worship at His feet.
We wait
before Your throne,
And
seek Your grace this hour.
O Lord,
Your servant's message own,
And
clothe him with Your power.
Lord,
hear our prayers and cries,
Accept
our feeble praise,
Give
ear to our unspoken sighs,
And
answer by Your grace.
God
will His grace impart.
His
mercy He will give.
He can
revive our listless hearts
And
cause the dead to live!
Give us, O Lord, a place
Around
Your throne above,
Among
those sinners saved by grace,
The people of Your love.
