Let Us Sing, for We have Reason

Author: John Newton Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 113 Lyrics: 1 Let us sing, for we have reason; Let us join with those above; Praise is never out of season; Let us praise the God of love; We have cause, indeed, to sing, Jesus is our glorious King. 2 When we reach the full enjoyment Of the state where sorrows end; Praise will be our sweet employment, We shall praise the sinner’s friend; Him who washed us with His blood, Saved, and brought us nigh to God. 3 But how diff’rent then our praises From the thanks we render now! Well our coldness may amaze us, When we think how much we owe; But no coldness will remain When that glorious state we gain. 4 Yet our Lord accepts our praises, Offered while we sojourn here; He on whom th’archangel gazes With delight and holy fear, Hears His people when they sing, And accepts the praise they bring.
