Text: | Come, we that love the Lord |
Author: | Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 |
Tune: | VINEYARD HAVEN |
Composer: | Richard Wayne Dirksen, b. 1921 |
1 Come, we that love the Lord,
and let our joys be known;
join in a song with sweet accord
and thus surround the throne.
Refrain:
Hosanna, hosanna!
Rejoice, give thanks and sing.
2 Let those refuse to sing
that never knew our God;
but children of the heavenly King
may speak their joys abroad. [Refrain]
3 The heirs of grace have found
glory begun below;
celestial fruits on earthly ground
from faith and hope may grow. [Refrain]
4 Then let our song abound
and let our tears be dry;
we're marching through Emmanuel's ground
to fairer worlds on high. [Refrain]
