54. Come, let us sing of Jesus

1 Come, let us sing of Jesus,
While hearts and accents blend;
Come, let us sing of Jesus,
The only sinner's friend.

Chorus:
We love Jesus,
We love Jesus,
We love Jesus,
Because he first loved us.

2 His holy soul rejoices
Amid the choirs above,
To hear our youthful voices
Exulting in his love. [Chorus]

3 We love to sing of Jesus
Who wept our path along;
We love to sing of Jesus,
The tempted and the strong. [Chorus]

4 None who besought his healing,
He pass'd unheeded by,
And still retains his feeling
For us above the sky. [Chorus]

5 We love to sing of Jesus
Who died our souls to save,
We love to sing of Jesus,
Triumphant o'er the grave. [Chorus]

6 And in our hour of danger
We'll trust his love alone,
Who once slept in a manger,
And now sits on the throne. [Chorus]

7 Then let us sing of Jesus,
While yet on earth we stay,
And hope to sing of Jesus
Throughout eternal day. [Chorus]

8 For those who here confess him,
He will in heaven confess,
And faithful ones that bless him,
He will forever bless. [Chorus]
