Come, Ye that Love the Lord
"Whom having not seen, ye love." - 1 Pet 1:8
VERSE 1
Come, ye that love the Lord,
And let your joys be known
Join in a song with sweet accord,
Join in a song with sweet accord,
And thus surround the throne,
And thus surround the throne.
CHORUS
We're marching to Zion;
Beautiful, beautiful Zion;
We're marching upward to Zion,
The beautiful city of God.
VERSE 2
Let those refuse to sing,
Who never knew our God;
But children of the heavenly King,
But children of the heavenly King,
Must speak their joys abroad,
Must speak their joys abroad.
CHORUS
We're marching to Zion;
Beautiful, beautiful Zion;
We're marching upward to Zion,
The beautiful city of God.
VERSE 3
The hill of Zion yields
A thousand sacred sweets,
Before we reach the heav'nly fields,
Before we reach the heav'nly fields
Or walk the golden streets,
Or walk the golden streets.
CHORUS
We're marching to Zion;
Beautiful, beautiful Zion;
We're marching upward to Zion,
The beautiful city of God.
VERSE 4
Then let our songs abound,
And every tear be dry,
We're marching through Immanuel's ground,
We're marching through Immanuel's ground
To fairer worlds on high
To fairer worlds on high.
CHORUS
We're marching to Zion;
Beautiful, beautiful Zion;
We're marching upward to Zion,
The beautiful city of God.
