488. 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 mountains 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.

Amen.
