Hymnal: A Pocket Hymn Book #CXXVI (1791) Lyrics: 1 Come, ye that love the Lord,
And let your joys be known;
Join in a song with sweet accord,
While ye surround his throne:
Let those refuse to sing
That never knew our God;
But servants of the heav'nly King
May speak their Joys abroad.
2 The God that rules on high,
That all the earth surveys
That rides upon the stormy sky,
And calms the roaring seas;
This awful God is ours,
Our Father and our Love;
He will send down his heav'nly pow'rs
To carry us above.
3 There we shall see his face,
And never, never sin:
There, from the rivers of thy grace,
Drink endless pleasures in.
Yea, and before we rise
To that immortal state,
The thoughts of such amazing bliss
Should constant joys create.
4 The men of grace have found
Glory begun below;
Celestial fruit on earthly ground
From faith and hope may grow;
Then let our songs abound,
And ev'ry tear be dry;
We're marching through Immanuel's ground
To fairer worlds on high. Topics: Rejoicing Languages: English
