We love to sing of Jesus,
Triumphant o'er the grave;
And in our hour of danger,
We'll trust his love alone,
Who once slept in a manger,
And now sits on the throne.
4. Then let us sing of Jesus,
While yet on earth we stay,
And hope to sing of Jesus
Throughout eternal day:
For those who here confess him,
He will in heaven confess;
And faithful hearts that bless him,
He will forever bless.
1. Он, come, let us sing!
Our youthful hearts now swelling,
To God above, a God of love,→→
Oh, come, let us sing!
Our joyful spirits, glad and free,
With high emotions rise to thee,
In heavenly melody,-
Oh, come, let us sing!
2. The full notes prolong,
Our festal celebrating, fod
We hail the day with cheerful lay.
And full notes prolong.
Both cheerful youth and silvery age,
And childhood pure, the gay, the sage,
These thrilling scenes engage,
Full notes to prolong.
3. Oh, swell, swell the song, His praises oft repeating:
His Son he gave our souls to save,-
Oh, swell, swell the song.
The humble heart's devotion bring
Whence gushing streams of love do spring,
And make the welkin ring
With sweet-swelling song.
4. We'll chant, chant his praise,—
Our lofty strains now blending:
A tribute bring to Christ our King,
And chant, chant his praise!
Our Saviour, Prince, was crucified,
"'Tis finish'd!" then he meekly cried,.
And bow'd his head and died,-
Then chant, chant his praise!
5. All full chorus join,
To Jesus condescending
To bless our race with heavenly grace,
All full chorus join!
To God, whose mercy on us smiled,
And Holy Spirit, reconciled
By Christ, the meek and mild,
All full chorus join!
1. COME, ye who love the Lord,
And let your joys be known;
Join in a song with sweet accord,
And thus surround the throne.
2. Let those refuse to sing,
Who never knew our God;
But servants of the heavenly King
Should speak their joys abroad.
3. The men of grace have found
Glory begun below;
Celestial fruits on earthly ground
From faith and hope may grow.
4. The hill of Zion yields
A thousand sacred sweets,
Before we reach the heavenly fields
Or walk the golden streets.
5. Then let our songs abound,
And every tear be dry;
We're marching through Immanuel's ground,
To fairer worlds on high.
1. AWAKE, and sing the song
Of Moses and the Lamb;
Wake, every heart and every tongue,
To praise the Saviour's name.
2. Sing of his dying love;
Sing of his rising power;
Sing how he intercedes above
For those whose sins he bore.
3. Sing on your heavenly way,
Ye ransom'd sinners, sing;
Sing on, rejoicing every day
In Christ, the exalted King.
1. Soon we shall hear him say,
"Ye blessed children, come;"
Soon will he call us hence away,
And take his wanderers home
5. Soon shall our raptured tongue
His endless praise proclaim,
And sweeter voices tune the song
Of Moses and the Lamb.
1. OH for a thousand tongues to sing
My great Redeemer's praise,
The glories of my God and King,
The triumphs of his grace!
2. My gracious Master and my God,
Assist me to proclaim,
And spread through all the earth abroad,
The honours of thy name.
3. Jesus! the name that charms our fears,
That bids our sorrows cease;
'Tis music in the sinner's ears;
'Tis life and health and peace.
4. Look unto him, ye nations; own
Your God, ye fallen race;
Look, and be saved through faith alone,
Be justified by grace.
1. COME, thou Almighty King,
Help us thy name to sing,
Help us to praise! *
Father, all glorious,
O'er all victorious,
Come and reign over us,
Ancient of Days.
2. Jesus, our Lord, arise,
Scatter our enemies;
Now make them fall!
Let thine almighty aid
Our sure defence be made,
Our souls on thee be stay'd;
Lord, hear our call!
3. Come, thou incarnate Word,
Gird on thy mighty sword;
Our prayer attend!
Come, and thy people bless;
Come, give thy word success;
Spirit of holiness,
1. GLORY to God on high!
Let heaven and earth reply,
"Praise ye his name!"
Angels, his love adore,
Who all our sorrows bore;
Saints, sing for evermore,
Worthy the Lamb!"
2. Ye, who surround the throne,
Cheerfully join in one,
Praising his name;
