The Cyber Hymnal ‎#14076

14076. Yes, We Come

1 Blessed Lord, how good Thou art,
Thus to take each little heart;
Very glad indeed are we
Thou dost bid us come to Thee.

Refrain:
Yes, we come, quickly come,
Now Thy gentle voice we hear;
Yes, we come, quickly come
To Thy fold, our Savior dear.

2 Thou hast made this world of ours
Full of beauty, love and flowers;
Everywhere Thy hand we see,
Thou dost bid us come to Thee. [Refrain]

3 In the rosy beams of light,
In the silent hour of night,
In the twinkling stars we see,
Thou dost bid us come to Thee. [Refrain]

4 Young and weak and frail are we,
Tender buds that need Thy care;
Oh, how thankful, Lord, are we,
Thou dost bid us come to Thee. [Refrain]
