Representative Text

1 O come, let us sing!
Our youthful hearts now swelling,
To God above, a God of love,
Oh, come, let us sing!
Our joyful spirits, glad and free,
With high emotions raise to thee,
In heavenly melody,
Oh, come, let us sing.

2 The full notes prolong,
Our festal celebrating,
We hail the day with cheerful lay,
And fall notes prolong.
Both cheerful youth and silvery age,
And childhood pure, the gay, the sage,
These thrilling scenes engage,
Full notes to prolong.

3 Oh, swell, swell the song,
His praises oft repeating,
His Son he gave our souls to save--
Oh, swell, swell the song.
The humble heart's devotion bring,
Whence gushing streams of love do spring,
And make the welkin ring
With sweet swelling song.
