Come, we that love the Lord

Author: Watts Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #CCCXVIII (1816) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 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. 2 The sorrows of the mind Be banish'd from the place! Religion never was design'd To make our pleasures less. 3 Let those refuse to sing, Who never knew our God, But fav'rites of the heav'nly King May speak their joys abroad. 4 The God that rules on high, And thunders when he please, That rides upon the stormy sky, And manages the seas. 5 This awful God is ours, Our Father and our love, He shall send down his heav'nly pow'rs To carry us above. 6 There we shall see his face And never, never sin There from the rivers of his grace Drink endless pleasures in. 7 Yes, and before we rise To that immortal state, The thoughts of such amazing bliss Should constant joys create. 8 The men of grace have found Glory begun below, Celestial fruits on earthly ground From faith and hope may grow. 9 The hill of Zion yields A thousand sacred sweets, Before we reach the heav'nly fields Or walk the golden streets. 10 Then let our songs abound, And ev'ry tear by dry; W'ere marching through Immanuel's ground To fairer worlds on high.

To give thyself a royal crown That thus thou fought'st with death? 4 No—surely no—For man The combat was begun— For man 'twas finish'd—'tis complete— for man the battle's won. 5 Eternal praise await, Thy glorious, blessed name; Thou Captain of Salvation's hosts, All suff'ring, conqu'ring Lamb.
