Crowning Day No. 2 ‎#152

152. Come, Ye that Love the Lord

1 Come, ye that love the Lord,
And let your joys be known;
Join in a song with sweet accord,
While ye surround his throne.

Refrain:
I’m glad salvation’s free,
I’m glad salvation’s free;
Salvation’s free for you and me;
I’m glad salvation’s free.

2 Let those refuse to sing
Who never knew our God;
But servants of the heav’nly King
May speak their joys abroad.

3 The hill of Zion yields
A thousand sacred sweets,
Before we reach the heav’nly fields,
Or walk the Golden Streets. [Refrain]

4 There we shall see His face,
And never, never sin;
There, from the rivers of His grace,
Drink endless pleasures in: [Refrain]

5 Then let our songs abound,
And ev’ry tear be dry;
We’re marching thro’ Immanuel's grounds
To fairer worlds on high. [Refrain]
