1 And are we yet alive,
And see each other's face?
Glory and praise to Jesus give,
For His redeeming grace.
2 What troubles have we seen,
What conflicts have we past;
Fightings without and fears within,
Since we assembled last.
3 Yet out of all, the Lord
Hath brought us by his love;
And still he does his help afford,
And hides our life above.
4 Then let us make our boast,
Of his redeeming pow'r;
Which saves us to the uttermost,
Till we can sin no more.
5 Let us take up the cross,
Till we the crown obtain;
And gladly reckon all things lost,
So we may Jesus gain.
Charles Wesley
Methodist Hymnal, 1964 edition
<idle musing>
Hymnary.org inserts a verse:
2 Preserv'd by pow'r divine,</idle musing>
To feel salvation here;
Again in Jesus' name we join,
And in his sight appear.
