James Montgomery

For the Centenary Jubilee of a Christian Church.

Now in holy convocation,

Hands, and hearts, and voices raise,

In one hymn of jubilation,

To our great Redeemer's praise;

"Ebenezer!"

He hath led us all our ways.

"Ebenezer!" Those before us,

Sang at every onward stage;

This to-day shall swell the chorus

In our house of pilgrimage:

May our children

Sing the same from age to age!

So in heaven, when all the story

Of His love to us is shown,

Be our earliest song in glory,

"Ebenezer!" round the Throne

While for ever,

We shall know as we are known.
