- 1Part the First
- 2Come, and let us sweetly join,
- Christ to praise in hymns divine!
- Give we all, with one accord,
- Glory to our common Lord;
- Hands, and hearts, and voices raise:
- Sing as in the ancient days;
- Antedate the joys above,
- Celebrate the feast of love.
- 3Strive we, in affection strive:
- Let the purer flame revive;
- Such as in the martyrs glow'd,
- Dying champions for their God:
- We like them may live and love;
- Call'd we are their joys to prove;
- Sav'd with them from future wrath;
- Partners of like precious faith.
- 4Sing we then in Jesu’ name,
- Now as yesterday the same;
- One in ev’ry time and place,
- Full for all of truth and grace:
- We for Christ our master stand,
- Lights in a benighted land;
- We our dying Lord confess;
- We are Jesu’ witnesses.
- 5Witnesses that Christ hath dy'd;
- We with him are crycify'd:
- Christ hath burst the bands of death:
- We his quick'ning Spirit breathe;
- Christ is now gone up on high;
- Thither all our wishes fly:
- Sits at God's right-hand above;
- There with him we reign in love.
