118. O Come and Sing unto the Lord

1 O come and sing unto the Lord,
to him our voices raise;
let us in our most joyful songs
the Lord, our Savior, praise.

2 Before his presence let us come
with praise and thankful voice;
let us sing psalms to him with grace,
with grateful hearts rejoice.

3 The Lord our God is King of kings,
above all gods his throne;
the depths of earth are in his hand,
the mountain are his own.

4 To him the spacious sea belongs,
he made its waves and tides;
and by his hand the rising land
was formed, and still abides.

5 O come, and bowing down to him
our worship let us bring;
yea, let us kneel before the Lord,
our Maker and our King.
