Sing, ye ransomed

1 Praise unto thee we sing,
Who, only, art the King,
Songs we will raise unto thee this day;
Save us from earthly woe,
Guard us from ev'ry foe,
Lead us along our earthly way.

Chorus:
O sing ye ransomed, wake your nobles, sweetest strains,
Sound his praises o'er and 'er again;
Our King victorious, glorious,
Over ev'ry foe shall victor be,
Praise him, praise him,
He shall reign eternally.

2 Thou who hast trod the road,
Thou who has borne the load
Sin laid on thee, who no sin hath known,
Hear, as to thee we bow,
Seeking thy favor now,
Bending before thy heav'nly throne. [Chorus]

3 No earthly crown was thine,
O Son of God divine,
Yet in our hearts thou shalt reign alone;
All shall give place to thee,
Nor would we ever be
Seeking a favor not thine own. [Chorus]

4 Angels before thee now
Lowly in worship bow,
We would exalt thee as hosts above;
Thou, only, art the King,
Thy glory we will sing,
Thee we would praise for thy great love. [Chorus]
