Lyics

COME in, thou blessed of the Lord,

Yes, Come in Jesus' blessed name:

We welcome thee with one accord,

And trust the Saviour does the same.



Those joys which earth cannot afford

We'll seek in fellowship to prove;

Join'd in one spirit to our Lord,

Together bound by mutual love.



And while we pass this vale of tears,

We'll make our joys and sorrows known:

We'll share each others' hopes and fears,

And count a brother's cares our own.



Once more our welcome we repeat,

Receive the hand of broth'rly love:

O may we all together meet,

Around the throne of God above.
