Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #572 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: The Voice of Praise Lyrics: 1 Come, blessed Lord! let every shore,
And answering island, sing
The praises of thy royal name,
And own thee as their King.
2 Bid the whole earth responsive, now,
To the bright world above,
Break forth in sweetest strains of joy,
In memory of thy love.
3 Jesus! thy fair creation groans,
The air, the earth, the sea,
In unison with all our hearts,
And calls aloud for thee.
4 Thine was the cross, with all its fruits
Of grace and peace divine;
Be thine the crown of glory, now,
The palm of victory thine. Topics: The Christian Church Missionary; For Every Creature
Come, blessed Lord! let every shore
