28. Come, Christians, Join to Sing

1 Come, Christians, join to sing
Alleluia! Amen!
loud praise to Christ we bring;
Alleluia! Amen!
let all, with heart and voice,
before his throne rejoice;
praise is his gracious choice.
Alleluia! Amen!

2 Come, lift your hearts on high,
Alleluia! Amen!
let praises fill the sky;
Alleluia! Amen!
Christ is our guide and friend
on whom we can depend:
his love shall never end.
Alleluia! Amen!

3 Praise yet our Christ again,
Alleluia! Amen!
life shall not end the strain;
Alleluia! Amen!
on heaven’s blissful shore,
his goodness we’ll adore,
singing forevermore,
Alleluia! Amen!
