Acts 21:5: Two or three in Jesus' name
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Two or three in Jesus' name,
According to His word
Humbly met, may boldly claim
The presence of their Lord;
He Himself prepares the fane
With azure canopy o'erspread,
Ample dome to entertain
The members and their Head.
How august the hallow'd place
To faith's discerning eye!
Hallow'd by the present grace
Of Him who fills the sky!
While the Spirit of love and prayer
Into their simple hearts is given
Christ with all His church is there,
And turns their earth to heaven.
