Lyics

How sweet to bless the Lord,

And in his praises join,

With saints his goodness to record,

And sing his power divine.

With saints his goodness to record,

And sing his power divine.



These seasons of delight,

The dawn of glory seem,

Like rays of pure, celestial light,

Which on our spirits beam.

Like rays of pure, celestial light,

Which on our spirits beam.



O blest assurance this;

Bright morn of heav'nly day;

Sweet foretaste of eternal bliss,

That cheers the pilgrim's way.

Sweet foretaste of eternal bliss,

That cheers the pilgrim's way.
