Tune: | VINEYARD HAVEN |
Composer: | Richard Wayne Dirksen |
1 Come, we that love the Lord,
and let our joys be known;
join in a song with sweet accord,
and thus surround the throne.
Refrain:
Hosanna! Hosanna!
Rejoice, give thanks, and sing!
2 Sing till we feel our hearts
ascending with our tongue,
sing till the love orf sin departs,
and grace inspires our songs: (Refrain)
3 Ye pilgrims on the road
to Zion's city, sing;
rejoice ye in the Lamb of God,
in Christ th'eternal King: (Refrain)
4 There shall each raptured tongue
his endless priase proclaim,
and sing in sweeter notes the song
of Moses and the Lamb: (Refrain)
5 Then let our songs abound
and let our tears be dry;
we're marching through Emmanuel's ground
to fairer worlds on high! (Refrain)
