Come, let our voices join to raise
A sacred song of solemn praise;
God is a sovereign King, rehearse
His honors in exalted verse.

Come, let our souls address the Lord,
Who framed our natures with his word;
He is our Shepherd; we the sheep
His mercy chose, His pastures keep.

Come, let us hear His voice today,
The counsels of His love obey;
Nor let our hardened hearts renew
The sins and plagues that Israel knew.

Seize the kind promise while it waits,
And march to Zion's heavenly gates:
Believe, and take the promised rest;
Obey, and be for ever blest.
