('Jesus where'er thy people meet')
Philippians 1 v.3-7
********
Paul thanks God on each remembrance
Of the Philippians, does sense
Their love and care, and in each prayer
For them all he in joy does share
Remembering their fellowship
Since the first day of their worship
And sharing in the gospel too
Proclaiming still the message true
He confident of this very
Thing, that God who has begun, see
A good work in them, that He will
Perform, complete it in them still
Even as it is right that he
Should think this of them all, so be
Having them in his heart, for they
Partake of his grace every day
For they support him in his chains
His bonds, for the gospel his pains
And in his defence, confirming
Of the gospel loyalty bring
