Hymn
Come, Let Us Join Our Cheerful Songs
Come, let us join our cheerful songs
With angels round the throne;
Ten thousand thousand are their tongues,
But all their joys are one.
Worthy the Lamb that died, they cry,
To be exalted thus;
Worthy the Lamb, our lips reply,
For He was slain for us.
Jesus is worthy to receive
Honor and pow'r divine;
And blessings more than we can give,
Be, Lord, forever Thine.
Let all that dwell above the sky
And air and earth and seas
Conspire to lift Thy glories high
And speak Thine endless praise!
