We have come rejoicing

Hymnal: The Little Seraph #108 (1874) First Line: We have come rejoicing on this happy day Refrain First Line: There we shall never grieve him more Lyrics: 1 We have come rejoicing on this happy day, In our Sunday School we dearly love to stay; And with voices blending in a sacred song, We the Saviour's praise prolong. Chorus: There we shall never grieve him more, But with the angels on that shore, Strike the harps of glory in a sweeter strain, And ever with them praise his holy name. We have come rejoicing on this happy day, In our Sunday School we dearly love to stay; And with voices blending in a sacred song, We the Saviour's praise prolong. 2 Through the week he's kept us, and his smiling face Still is beaming on us, in this happy place; And the gracious Spirit, from his holy throne, Tells us of a better home. [Chorus] 3 Jesus there is smiling on his Father's throne, Saying, "Come, in welcome, come, for here is room, In these shining mansions I have still a place, Children, hasten to my face." [Chorus] 4 And in robes of glory, like the stars above, Shall my loved ones ever, ever with me rove; Where the waving flowerets of immortal bloom, Shed around their sweep perfume. [Chorus] Tune Title: [We have come rejoicing on this happy day]
