"Come, Let Us Join Our Cheerful Songs"
                           by Isaac Watts, 1674-1748
                                  Text From:
                      THE HANDBOOK TO THE LUTHERAN HYMNAL
               (St. Louis: Concordia Publishing House, 1942)p.246
                                       
                                       

	1. Come, let us join our cheerful songs
	With angels round the throne.
	Ten thousand thousand are their tongues,
	But all their joys are one.
	
	2. "Worthy the Lamb that died," they cry,
	"To be exalted thus."
	"Worthy the Lamb," our lips reply,
	For He was slain for us.
	
	3. Jesus is worthy to receive
	Honor and power divine;
	And blessings more than we can give
	Be, Lord, forever Thine.
	
	4. Let all creation join in one
	To bless the sacred name
	Of Him that sits upon the throne
	And to adore the Lamb.
