16299. We Come With Happy Hearts

1 We come, we come with hap­py hearts,
This day to ce­le­brate,
To speak and sing of Him we love,
His mer­cies to re­late.

Refrain:
Sing on, sing on, Oh! joy­ful­ly sing,
With mer­ri­est hearts to Je­sus our king;
We’re fol­low­ing on ob­ey­ing His voice,
United and lov­ing, we ev­er re­joice.

2 We thank Him for the hap­py past,
For love shown us anew;
And if our skies be ov­er­cast,
We’ll trust His love so true. [Refrain]

3 We can­not go be­yond His care,
Whatever be our lot,
And pray­er and praise through­out our days
Shall ne­ver be forgot. [Refrain]
