Hymns of the Restoration ‎#22

22. Let Us Go to the House of the Lord

1 I was glad, and my heart did rejoice at the sound,
When the bless'd invitation I heard;
'Twas the voice of the many redeemed, and they said,
"Let us go to the house of the Lord."

Refrain:
Then go to the house of the Lord,
Then go to the house of the Lord,
With anthems and songs of thanksgiving and praise,
"Let us go to the house of the Lord."

2 All the pleasures of revelry, pastime, and mirth,
All the joys that the world can afford,
Cannot once be compared to the peace and the bliss
of a day in the house of the Lord. [Refrain]

3 May the time come to pass, and the day soon appear,
That is promised to us in the Word,
When the nations of earth all together shall call,
"Let us go to the house of the Lord." [Refrain]
