Draw us in the Spirit’s tether

by Percy Dearmer (1867–1936)

Representative text

As printed in The Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal (1985), no. 259.

Verse 1

Draw us in the Spirit’s tether, For when humbly in Thy name, Two or three are met together Thou are in the midst of them; Alleluia! Alleluia! Touch we now Thy garment’s hem.

Verse 2

As the brethren used to gather In the name of Christ to sup, Then with thanks to God the Father Break the bread and bless the cup, Alleluia! Alleluia! So knit Thou our friendship up.

Verse 3

All our meals and all our living Make as sacraments of Thee, That by caring, helping, giving We may true disciples be. Alleluia! Alleluia! We will serve Thee faithfully.
