Come, We That Love the Lord

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: WASH1957 #247 (2006) Lyrics: 1 Come, we that love the Lord, And let our joys be known; Join in a song with sweet accord, And thus surround the throne. 2 Let those refuse to sing That never knew our God; But children of the heavenly King May speak their joys abroad. 3 The hill of Zion yields A thousand sacred sweets Before we reach the heavenly fields, Or walk the golden streets. 4 Then let our songs abound, And every tear be dry; We're marching through Immanuel's ground To fairer worlds on high.

All the winter of our sins, Long and dark, is flying From His light, to whom we give Laud and praise undying. 3 Now the queen of seasons, bright With the day of splendor, With the royal feast of feasts, Comes its joy to render; Comes to glad Jerusalem, Who with true affection Welcomes in unwearied strains Jesus' resurrection. 4 "Halleluia!" now we cry To our King Immortal, Who, triumphant, burst the bars Of the tomb's dark portal; "Halleluia!" with the Son, God the Father praising; "Halleluia!" yet again To the Spirit raising.

Behold His hands and side, Those wounds, yet visible above, In beauty glorified: All hail, Redeemer, hail! For Thou hast died for me: Thy praise and glory shall not fail Throughout eternity. Amen.

Dear Lord and Father of Mankind

Author: John G. Whittier, 1807-1892 Hymnal: WASH1957 #388 (2006) Lyrics: 1 Dear Lord and Father of mankind, Forgive our foolish ways! Reclothe us in our rightful mind; In purer lives Thy service find, In deeper reverence, praise. 2 In simple trust like theirs who heard, Beside the Syrian sea, The gracious calling of the Lord, Let us, like them, without a word, Rise up and follow Thee. 3 Drop Thy still dews of quietness, Till all our strivings cease; Take from our souls the strain and stress, And let our ordered lives confess The beauty of Thy peace. 4 Breathe through the heats of our desire Thy coolness and Thy balm; Let sense be dumb, let flesh retire; Speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire, O still small voice of calm!
