Tune:[We are glad ‘tis the Saviour’s voice]
Composer:W. H. Doane

168. We are Glad

1 We are glad ‘tis the Saviour’s voice,
Tenderly our footsteps guiding,
Bids our hearts in His love rejoice,
Safely in His mercy hiding.

Refrain:
We are glad, we are glad,
Glad Jesus said that He came into the world,
Into the world to seek and save us,
Into the world to seek and save us.

2 O what joy in our hearts today,
Gathered in our Sabbath dwelling;
Here we learn of the narrow way
Faithful ones to us are telling. [Refrain]

3 We are glad there’s a home above,
Where we all may dwell forever;
There to sing of the Saviour’s love
Flowing like a boundless rive. [Refrain]
