O Come Where Love Is Bending

Representative Text

1 Oh, come with hearts rejoicing,
And full of grateful praise,
For this returning Sabbath,
The best of all our days.

Chorus:
Oh, come where love is bending,
The children's song to hear,
And Jesus with his blessing crowns
Our Sabbath home so dear.

2 Oh, come and learn the Bible,
That book whose ev'ry page
Is bright with words of comfort,
For childhood, youth, and age. [Chorus]

3 Oh, come and learn of Jesus,
Believe and serve him now,
Let ev'ry one believe him,
In sweetest rapture bow. [Chorus]

4 Oh, come and if we ask him
He'll take us in his care,
And bring us to his kingdom,
Eternal life to share. [Chorus]
