We Gather Together


D                                    A                       D 
We gather together to ask the Lord's blessing.
                                                   E7                 A
He chastens and hastens His will to make known.
                          D                     A                       D
The wicked oppressing now cease from distressing.
          G                      D                     A                  D
Sing praises to His name.  He forgets not His own.


D                                            A                  D
Beside us to guide us, our God with us joining,
                                               E7                A
Ordaining, maintaining His kingdom divine.
                           D                A                     D
So from the beginning the fight we were winning.
           G                           D           A            D
Thou, Lord, wast at our side, all glory be Thine!


D                                            A              D
We all do extol Thee, Thou Leader triumphant,
                                                   E7              A
And pray that Thou still our defender wilt be.
                           D             A             D
Let Thy congregation escape tribulation.
        G                      D                 A                       D
Thy name be ever praised!  O Lord, make us free!
