Lyrics
Font size:
[1]
Come, we that love the Lord,
and let our joys be known;
join in a song with sweet accord,
and thus surround the throne.
[2]
The sorrows of the mind
be banished from the place!
Religion never was designed
to make our pleasures less.
[3]
Let those refuse to sing
that never knew our God;
but children of the heavenly king
may speak their joys abroad.
[4]
The men of grace have found
glory begun below;
celestial fruits on earthly ground
from faith and hope may grow.
[5]
Then let our songs abound,
and every tear be dry;
we're marching through Emmanuel's ground
to fairer worlds on high.
Come, we that love the Lord,
