Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9763 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Come, happy souls, approach your God,
With new melodious songs;
Come, tender to almighty grace,
The tribute of your tongues.
2 So strange, so boundless was the love
That pitied dying men,
The Father sent His equal Son
To give them life again.
3 Thy hands, dear Jesus, were not armed
With a revenging rod,
No hard commission to perform
The vengeance of a God.
4 But all was mercy, all was mild,
And wrath forsook the throne,
When Christ on the kind errand came,
And brought salvation down.
5 Here, sinners, you may heal your wounds,
And wipe your sorrows dry;
Trust in the mighty Savior’s name,
And you shall never die.
6 See, dearest Lord, our willing souls
Accept Thine offered grace;
We bless the great Redeemer’s love,
And give the Father praise. Languages: English Tune Title: AZMON
Come, Happy Souls, Approach Your God
