We are Gathering Together Unto Him

This is a short folk-style gathering / entrance hymn.   The author and composer are unknown.

The song was included in Songs of Praise published in New Zealand in the early 1970s - this did not credit the song to anyone, but states that it is based on Genesis 49:10 

Extra verses can be added as needed (eg loving, serving, working, praying, etc)

Lyrics

We are gathering together unto Him,
We are gathering together unto Him,
Unto Him shall the gathering of the people be,
We are gathering together unto Him.

We are offering together unto Him,
We are offering together unto Him,
Unto Him shall the gathering of the people be,
We are offering together unto Him.

We are singing together unto Him,
We are singing together unto Him,
Unto Him shall the gathering of the people be,
We are singing together unto Him.

We are praying together unto Him,
We are praying together unto Him,
Unto Him shall the gathering of the people be,
We are praying together unto Him.
