Since its first appearance, “Brethren, We Have Met to Worship” has become one of today’s most popular hymns. The opening stanza of this call to worship invites Christians to pray for the Holy Spirit’s presence as the service begins. The final stanza urges believers to live in the love of God in anticipation of the full redemption of creation when Christ returns.
