Join the Children of the Lord

Representative Text

1 Join with us in sweet accord,
Sing the praises of the Lord,
Praise unto His holy name,
Ev'ry heart His love proclaim;
Send the news to ev'ry nation;
Show the way unto salvation;
Give to all this invitation:
Join the children of the Lord.

2 Sound around the gospel plan
Through the earth, in ev'ry land;
Gather home into the fold
Honest hearts, both young and old
Give them of that richest treasure,
Joy and peace in boundless measure;
All your duties do with pleasure;
Join the children of the Lord.

3 Tell the children all abroad
Of the true and living God,
Of His mercies, of His love,
Of His coming from above,
Of His word by revelation;
Of His works in all creation;
Give to all this invitation:
Join the children of the Lord.
