Lyics

COME, all ye saints of God,

Wide through the earth abroad

Spread Jesus' fame;

Tell what His love hath done;

Trust in His name alone;

Shout to His lofty throne,

"Worthy the Lamb!"



Hence, gloomy doubts and fears!

Dry up your mournful tears;

Swell the glad theme;

To Christ, our gracious King,

Strike each melodious string;

Join heart and voice to sing,

"Worthy the Lamb!"



Hark! how the choirs above,

Filled with the Saviour's love,

Dwell on His name!

There, too, may we be found,

With light and glory crown'd,

While all the heav'ns resound,

"Worthy the Lamb!"
