Now Let Us Raise Our Cheerful Strains

Author: Anne Steele Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 74 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Now let us raise our cheerful strains, And join the blissful choir above; There our exalted Savior reigns, And there they sing His wondrous love. 2 While seraphs tune th’immortal song; O may we feel the sacred flame; And every heart and every tongue Adore the Savior’s glorious name. 3 Jesus, who once upon the tree In agonizing pains expired, Who died for rebels—yes, ’tis He! How bright! how lovely! how admired! 4 Jesus, who died that we might live, Died in the wretched traitor’s place— O what returns can mortals give, For such immeasurable grace? 5 Were universal nature ours, And art with all her boasted store, Nature and art with all their powers, Would still confess the offerer poor! 6 Yet tho’ for bounty so divine, We ne’er can equal honors raise, Jesus, may all our hearts be Thine, And all our tongues proclaim Thy praise.

Daughters Of Sion, Come, Behold

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 20 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Daughters of Sion, come, behold The crown of honor and of gold Which the glad church, with joys unknown, Placed on the head of Solomon. 2 Jesus, Thou everlasting King, Accept the tribute which we bring; Accept the well deserved renown, And wear our praises as Thy crown. 3 Let every act of worship be Like our espousals, Lord, to Thee; Like the clear hour when from above We first received Thy pledge of love. 4 The gladness of that happy day, Our hearts would wish it long to stay; Nor let our faith forsake its hold, Nor comfort sink, nor love grow cold. 5 Each following minute, as it flies, Increase Thy praise, improve our joys, Till we are raised to sing Thy name At the great supper of the Lamb. 6 O that the months would roll away, And bring that coronation day! The King of Grace shall fill the throne, With all His Father’s glories on. Used With Tune: ST. DROSTANE Text Sources: Hymns and Spiritual Songs, Book I, 1707-09
