CCLX. Adoring Jesu

1 O come let us join,
Together combine,
To praise our dear Savior, our Master divine.

2 He worthy is blest
By spirits at rest,
Who once in this desart his Godhead confess'd,

3 The prophets who told
His suff'rings of old,
Sing now sweet thanksgiving on psalt'ries of gold.

4 The fathers to whom
He shew'd he would come,
Now in his pavilio take up their long hom.

4 The spirits of men,
Who for him were slain,
From Abel the righteous, share now in his reign.

5 The apostles who stood,
Resisting to blood,
For JESUS' gospel, rejoice in their GOD.

6 O church of the Lamb,
Here met, do the same,
With saints, and with angels, bless JESUS' name.

7 My soul bear a part,
For ransom'd thou art,
By JESUS' blood-shedding, his burial and smart.

8 To him that was slain,
The scorn'd Nazarene,
Be glory and honour, let all say Amen,
