Come, let us Sing of Jesus
Author: George Washington Bethune, 1805-1862 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 124 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, let us sing of Jesus,
While hearts and accents blend;
Come, let us sing of Jesus,
The sinner’s only Friend;
His holy soul rejoices
Amid the choirs above,
To hear our youthful voices
Exulting in His love.
2 We love to sing of Jesus,
Who wept our path along:
We love to sing of Jesus,
The tempted and the strong;
None who besought His healing,
He passed unheeded by:
And still retains His feeling
For us above the sky.
3 We love to sing of Jesus,
Who died our souls to save;
We love to sing of Jesus,
Triumphant o’er the grave;
And in our hour of danger,
We’ll trust His love alone,
Who once slept in a manger,
And now sits on a throne.
4 Then let us sing of Jesus,
While yet on earth we stay,
And hope to sing of Jesus,
Throughout eternal day.
For those who here confess Him
He will in heaven confess,
And faithful hearts that bless Him,
He will forever bless.
Amen. Topics: Worship Used With Tune: LANCASHIRE

Henry Thomas Smart
1813 - 1879 Person Name: Henry Smart, 1812-1879 Composer of "LANCASHIRE" in Hymnal and Order of Service Henry Smart (b. Marylebone, London, England, 1813; d. Hampstead, London, 1879), a capable composer of church music who wrote some very fine hymn tunes (REGENT SQUARE, 354, is the best-known).
Smart gave up a career in the legal profession for one in music. Although largely self taught, he became proficient in organ playing and composition, and he was a music teacher and critic. Organist in a number of London churches, including St. Luke's, Old Street (1844-1864), and St. Pancras (1864-1869), Smart was famous for his extemporizations and for his accompaniment of congregational singing. He became completely blind at the age of fifty-two, but his remarkable memory enabled him to continue playing the organ. Fascinated by organs as a youth, Smart designed organs for important places such as St. Andrew Hall in Glasgow and the Town Hall in Leeds. He composed an opera, oratorios, part-songs, some instrumental music, and many hymn tunes, as well as a large number of works for organ and choir. He edited the Choralebook (1858), the English Presbyterian Psalms and Hymns for Divine Worship (1867), and the Scottish Presbyterian Hymnal (1875). Some of his hymn tunes were first published in Hymns Ancient and Modern (1861).
