1 Amen! be His Word and Spirit
Amen, Christ supplies our want;
Amen is His pow'r and merit;
Amen is His cup and font;
Amen is His death and life;
Amen, Christ with grace is rife!

2 Amen, hope that never faileth;
Amen, faith that maketh strong;
Amen, love that e'er prevaileth;
Amen, in yon sainted throng;
Amen in God's blessed rest;
Amen, there to dwell is best.

3 Amen, every saint is voicing;
Amen, is our heavenly song;
Amen, there for aye rejoicing;
Amen, in God's joyous throng;
Amen! life comes from above;
Amen! God alone is love!

4 Amen! all unite in praying,
Amen! hear our prayer, O Lord!
Amen! Jesus, Thou art saying;
Amen! is Thy seal and word;
Amen! say, O child, come home!
Amen! in Thy name I come!
