LyicsCOME, let us with a joyful heart
In this blest labor share a part;
Not prayers alone but off'rings bring,
To aid the triumphs of our King.
Our hearts exult in songs of praise,
In hope to see the latter days;
Oh may we not forget to prove
By generous deeds, how much we love.
Wher'er his hand has spread the skies,
His bounty every need supplies;
Shall we not imitate his grace,
And fill with gifts this favoring place?
A generous heart the Lord approves,
A liberal hand our Saviour loves;
Come, then, you saints, approve his will,
And let your gifts his treas'ry fill.
