Author: John Cennick Hymnal: Praise for the Lord (Expanded Edition) #87 (1997) Meter: 7.7.7.7 First Line: Children of the heav'nly King Lyrics: 1 Children of the heav'nly King,
As ye journey, sweetly sing;
Sing your Savior's worthy praise,
Glorious in His works and ways.
2 Shout, ye ransomed ones and blest!
You on Jesus' throne shall rest;
There your seat is now prepared,
There your glory and reward.
3 Lift your eyes, ye sons of light!
Zion's city is in sight:
There our endless home shall be,
There our Lord we soon shall see.
4 Fear not, brethren, joyful stand
On the borders of your land;
Jesus Christ, your Father's Son,
Bids you undismayed go on.
5 Lord, obediently we go,
Gladly leaving all below:
Only, Lord, our Leader be,
That we still may follow Thee. Topics: Christians Sonship Scripture: Malachi 2:10 Languages: English Tune Title: PLEYEL'S HYMN
