1 Come, let us all unite to praise
The Saviour of mankind,
Our thankful hearts, in solemn lays,
Be with our voices join'd.
2 But how shall we his love declare,
When Angels try in vain;
Their faces veil, when they appear
Before the Son of Man.
3 Yet Lord, we cannot silent be,
By love we are constrain'd
To offer our best thanks to thee,
Our Saviour and our friend.
4 Though feeble are our best essays,
Thy love will not despise
Our grateful songs of humble praise,
Our well-meant sacrifice.
5 Worship and honour, thanks and love,
Be to our Saviour giv'n;
By Men below, by hosts above,
By all in earth and heav'n!
