173. O Receive Him

1 Youthful voices, happy voices,
Sing of Jesus and his love,
While the angels bending o'er us
Whisper softly from above,

Chorus:
Oh, believe him, oh, receive him,
Your Redeemer kind and true!
How he loves you! yes, he loves you
More than all your friends can do.

2 Youthful voices, happy voices,
While we praise him day by day,
Lo! the angels hover round us;
In our hearts we hear them say, [Chorus]

3 Youthful voices, happy voices,
While we breathe his name so dear,
From the Bible, holy Bible.
Still the gentle words we hear, [Chorus]
