The New Sabbath School Hosanna ‎#184b

184b. We come, we come, in joyous train

1 We come, we come, in joyous train,
To sing the praise of Jesus' name,
And high our voices raise;
He that redeem'd our fallen race,
And saves us by his sovereign grace,
Demands our highest praise.

2 O Jesus, thou exalted King,
To thee our offering now we bring:
May we our tongues employ
To swell the song of dying love
Which ransom'd souls now sing above,
While heaven is fill'd with joy.

3 Thou blessed Lamb that once was slain
Who bore the cross, endured its pain,
And died on Calvary's hill;
We hail thee as the risen Lord,
Who came according to thy word,
To do thy Father's will.

4 Then shout aloud, in joyful strains,
'Tis Jesus Christ forever reigns,
High on his throne above;
And may the heavenly choirs on high
Send back the echo in reply
To this our song of love.
