LyicsO WITH what pleasure we behold
Sinners to Canaan move,
Leaving the fleeting things of earth
For greater things above.
These, having openly confess'd
The great Immanuel's name,
With sacred pleasure we receive
As lovers of the Lamb.
Lord, may they ever live to thee,
And grow in heav'nly love!
Still may they fight the fight of faith,
Till crown'd with thee above.
