Father, again in Jesus' name we meet

Author: Lady L. E. G. Whitmore, 1792-1840 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #533 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Father, again in Jesus' name we meet, And bow in penitence beneath Thy feet; Again to Thee our contrite voices raise, To sue for mercy, and to sing Thy praise. 2 O we would bless Thee for Thy ceaseless care, And all Thy works from day to day declare: Is not our life with hourly mercies crowned? Does not Thine arm encircle us around? 3 Alas! unworthy of Thy boundless love, Too oft with careless feet from Thee we rove; But now, encouraged by Thy voice, we come, Returning sinners to a Father's home. 4 O by that Name in whom all fulness dwells, O by that Love which every love excels, O by that Blood so freely shed for sin, Open blest mercy's gate, and take us in.
