Hymns for the Use of Families, 35

Jesus, by our prayers invited,
Condescend to be our Guest,
With the sons of men delighted
In Thy ransom'd creature rest;
Claim us, for Thy purchased home;
Come, Thou Friend of sinners, come.

In an earthly habitation
Still if Thou art pleased to dwell.
Visit us with Thy salvation,
God of love, Thyself reveal;
Take possession of Thine own,
Finish what Thy grace begun.

Lord, Thou hitherto hast brought us
By Thy sweet alluring grace,
Surely Thou to this hast wrought us
That we would our Friend embrace
Come, the loving Spirit cries;
Come, the longing bride replies.

Power Divine hath made us willing
All Thy fulness to receive:
Now Thine own desires fulfilling,
Come, and in Thy temples live;
Thou in us, and we in Thee
Dwell to all eternity.
