Text:We come to thee, O Christ our King
Author:Rev. H. J. Zelley

14. We come to thee, O Christ our King

1 We come to thee, O Christ our King,
And sing our joyful lays;
With loving hearts our gift we bring,
An offering of praise.

Refrain:
O praise the Lord, whose acts of love
Have gladdened all our days;
We'll give to him who reigns above
An offering of praise.

2 For being, we will praise the Lord,
Wisdom to guide our ways;
We'll bring to him for his dear Word
An offering of praise. [Refrain]

3 We'll praise him for his only Son,
The sinner's debt who pays;
We'll bring, for what our Christ has done.
An offering of praise. [Refrain]

4 We humbly fall at Jesus' feet,
Whose goodness crowns our days;
And give to him, as incense sweet,
An offering of praise. [Refrain]
