The tune for this hymn appears three times in the Lutheran hymnary in use in my congregation.
1) Blessed Jesus, at Thy Word
We are gathered all to hear Thee;
Let our hearts and souls be stirred
Now to seek and love and fear Thee.,
By Thy teachings, sweet and holy,
Drawn from earth to love Thee solely.
2)All our knowledge, sense, and sight
Lie in deepest darkness shrouded
Till Thy Spirit breaks our night
With the beams of truth unclouded.
Thou alone to God canst win us;
Thou must work all good within us.
