8900. A Voice, A Heav'nly Voice I Hear!

1 A voice, a heav’nly voice I hear!
Arise, O soul, come and draw near
To hallow and revere
The day the Lord thy God doth make,
And of the bread of life partake.

2 I come, dear Jesus, at Thy word,
A guest unworthy to Thy board,
My Savior and my Lord.
O clothe me with Thy righteousness,
My soul with Thy salvation bless!

3 O Lord, who my Redeemer art,
Come Thou and purify my heart.
From Thee I’ll ne’er depart,
But wheresoe’er Thou leadest me
In constant faith I’ll follow Thee.
