Hymn 39

Come, ye that love the Lord

Scripture: I Pet. 1:8

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.

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,

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.

4

Then let our songs abound,

And every tear be dry,

We’re marching through Immanuel’s ground

To fairer worlds on high

To fairer worlds on high.
