Text: | Come, ye that fear the Lord |
Author: | James Montgomery |
Tune: | ST. THOMAS |
Composer: | George F. Handel |
1 Come, ye that fear the Lord,
And love him while ye fear,
Come, and with heart and hand record
Your vow and covenant here.
2 Here to his altar brought,
Your holy vows renew,
To be in heart, and deed, and thought,
Faithful to him, and true.
3 And true and faithful he
To you will ever prove,
Though hills were swept into the sea,
And mountains should remove.
4 Then be his paths your choice,
The joy of young and old;
As sheep that hear their shepherd's voice,
And follow to the fold.
