The Service of Praise ‎#28

28. We Sing to Thee

1 We sing to thee, our blessed Lord;
O, kindly hear, thy help afford;
Lead us to own thy wondrous ways,
Inspire our hearts to nobler praise.

Refrain:
We sing to thee, we sing to thee;
And sweet and glad the song will be;
We sing to thee, we sing to thee,
At whose command, the shadows flee;
We sing to thee, a joyful song,
Let faith and Love the notes prolong;
While for thy grace we humbly pray,
Let ev’ry heart rejoice today.

2 We sing to thee, for thou hast died
The pearly gates to open wide,
“Come unto me,” we hear thee say,
Thyself the life, the Truth, the Way. [Refrain]

3 We sing to thee; for, risen high,
Thou livest now, no more to die;
Our fondest hopes on thee are staid,
Thy pow’r will keep, thy love will aid. [Refrain]
