Come, We That Love the Lord
Words: Isaac Watts, 1707
Music: Aaron Williams: 1770
Come, we that love the Lord, and let our joys
be known;
join in a song with sweet accord, and thus surround the throne.
Let those refuse to sing who never knew our God;
but children of the heavenly King may speak their joys
abroad.
The hill of Zion yields a thousand sacred sweets
before we reach the heavenly fields, or walk the golden streets.
Then let our songs abound, and every tear be dry;
we're marching through Emmanuel's ground, to fairer worlds on
high.
Gloria Patri:
Glory Be to the Father
Words: Lesser Doxology, 3rd-4th century
Music: Charles Meineke, 1844
Glory be to the Father
and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost
as it was in the beginning
is now and ever shall be,
world without end.
Amen. Amen.
Doxology: Praise God, from Whom all Blessings Flow
Words: Thomas Ken, 1674
Music: Geistliche Kirchengesange, 1623
Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;
praise God, all creatures here below:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Praise God the source of all our gifts!
Praise Jesus Christ, whose power uplifts!
Praise the Spirit, Holy Spirit!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Only Trust Him
Words: John H. Stockton, 1874
Music: John H. Stockton, 1869
Come, every soul by sin oppressed, there's
mercy with the Lord;
and he will surely give you rest, by trusting in his Word.
Refrain:
Only trust in him, only trust in him, only trust in him now.
He will save you, he will save you, he will save you now.
For Jesus shed his precious blood rich
blessings to bestow;
plunge now into the crimson flood that washes bright as snow.
Refrain
Yes, Jesus is the truth, the way that leads
you into rest;
believe in him without delay, and you are fully blest.
Refrain
Come then and join this holy band, and on to
glory go,
to dwell in that celestial land where joys and immortal flow.
Refrain
Marching to
Zion
Words: Isaac Watts: 1707
Music: Robert Lowry, 1867
Come, we that love the Lord, and let our joys
be known;
join in a song with sweet accord, join in a song with sweet
accord
and thus surround the throne, and thus surround the throne
Chorus:
We're marching to Zion, beautiful, beautiful Zion;
We're marching upward to Zion, the beautiful city of God.
Let those refuse to sing who never knew our
God;
but children of the heavenly King, but children of the heavenly
King
may speak their joys abroad, may speak their joys abroad.
Chorus
The hill of Zion yields a thousand sacred
sweets
before we reach the heavenly fields, before we reach the
heavenly fields
or walk the golden streets, or walk the golden streets.
Chorus
Then let our songs abound, and every tear be
dry;
we're marking through Emmanuel's ground, we're marching through
Emmanuel's ground,
to fairer worlds on high, to fairer worlds on high.
