Hymnal: Linden Harp #80 (1855) First Line: Come, let us sweetly sing, join in full chorus! Lyrics: 1 Come, let us sweetly sing, join in full chorus!
Praise to the mighty King, Him who reigneth o'er us:
Once, he, a little child, gentle and lowly,
Taught us how we should live, loving, pure, and holy.
2 Hail! hail to Him who once slept in a manger!
Wander'd from place to place, homeless, and a stranger,
Suffer'd and died for us, O wondrous story!
Suffer'd that we might all dwell with him in glory.
3 O thou who once did hear children when singing,
Thou who didst sweetly say, Suffer ye their bringing,
From thy bright home above, graciously bending,
List to our joyful songs, Gratefully ascending.
4 Be thou our guard and guide, grant us thy Spirit,
Own us as thine at last through thy perfect merit;
Then shall we sweetly sing In angelic chorus;
Praise evermore to him, who shall there reign o'er us!
