Methodist Hymn and Tune Book ‎#3b

3b. Come, let us join our cheerful songs

1. Come, let us join our cheerful songs
With angels round the throne;
Ten thousand thousand are their tongues,
But all their joys are one.

2. "Worthy the Lamb that died," they cry,
"To be exalted thus!"
"Worthy the Lamb!" our hearts reply;
"For He was slain for us."

3. Jesus is worthy to receive
Honour and power divine
And blessings; more than we can give,
Be, Lord, for ever Thine!

4. The whole creation join in one,
To bless the sacred name
Of Him who sits upon the throne,
And to adore the Lamb!
