Where two or three, with sweet accord,Obedient to their sovereign Lord,Meet to recount his acts of grace,And offer solemn prayer and praise,

2

There, says the Saviour, will I be,Amid this little company;To them unvail my smiling face,And shed my glories round the place.

3

We meet at thy command, dear Lord,Relying on thy faithful word;Now send thy Spirit from above,Now fill our hearts with heavenly love.

About this hymn

As printed Words only. As printed: hymn number «473» (large) in the left column of p. 153, under «Isaac Watts.» (end of hymn 472), with the italic reference line «624, 314, 315.» beside it (= sing to the tunes of hymns 624, 314 or 315); stanzas 1–2 stand at the foot of the left column, stanza 3 at the top of the right column; «Samuel Stennett.» in italics after stanza 3. The first word «WHERE» is set in capitals and small capitals. The lines of each stanza are not indented in the print. The print sets a thin space before «;» («company ;», «word ;»); it is closed up here. No meter is printed (the text is L. M., like the tunes referred to). Spelling, punctuation and capitals are the print's (stanza 1 ends with a comma; «unvail»).
