LyicsCOME, ye that love the Lord,
And let your joys be known;
Join in a song with sweet accord,
And thus surround the throne.
The God that rules on high,
And thunders when he please,
That rides upon the stormy sky
And manages the seas.
This awful God is ours,
Our Father and our Love:
He will send down his heav'nly powers
To carry us above.
There shall we see his face,
And never, never sin:
There, from the rivers of his grace,
Drink endless pleasures in.
Yes, and before we rise
To that immortal state,
The thoughts of such amazing bliss
Should constant joys create.
Then let our songs abound,
And ev'ry tear be dry;
We're marching through this barren ground
To fairer worlds on high.
