Jesus, where'er thy people meet

Author: William Cowper, 1731-1800 Hymnal: TBP1997 #431 (1997) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, where'er thy people meet, there they behold thy mercy seat; where'er they seek thee thou art found, and every place is hallowed ground. 2 Here may we prove the power of prayer to strengthen faith and sweeten care, to teach our faint desires to rise, and bring all heaven before our eyes. 3 Lord, we are few, but thou art near, nor short thine arm, nor deaf thine ear: oh rend the heavens, come quickly down and make a thousand hearts thine own.
