 1 

In spirit and in truth, O Lord,

   We meet to worship here;

As taught by Christ, the Son of God,

   We now in Him draw near.

 

 2 

Thank God, He is a Spirit true,

   So near, so dear to us;

That we may contact Him in life,

   In truth to worship thus.

 

 3 

A spirit God has made for us

   That we may worship Him,

Not striving, serving outwardly,

   But seeking from within.

 

 4 

Regenerated by the Lord,

   Renewed in mind and heart,

He dwells within us as our life

   True worship to impart.

 

 5 

We worship here according to

   The inner consciousness,

Anointed by His Spirit now

   His fulness we express.

 

 6 

In truth we serve and worship too,

   In shadows nevermore,

In Christ, the one reality,

   The Father we adore.

 

 7 

To God we offer Christ the Lord

   Whom we experience;

With God we too delight in Him,

   His light and sweetness sense.

 

 8 

In spirit and reality

   Together here we meet,

To worship, praise, and fellowship

   Around the mercy-seat.
