Come, Thou Precious Ransom

Come

Thou pre­cious ran­som

come

Only hope for sin­ful mor­tals!

Come

O Sav­ior of the world!

Open are to Thee all por­tals.

Come

Thy beau­ty let us see;

Anxiously we wait for Thee.

Enter now my wait­ing heart

Glorious King and Lord mo­st ho­ly.

Dwell in me and ne’er de­part

Though I am but poor and low­ly.

Ah

what rich­es will be mine

When Thou art my guest di­vine!

My ho­san­nas and my palms

Graciously re­ceive

I pray Thee;

Evermore

as best I can

Savior

I will hom­age pay Thee

And in faith I will em­brace

Lord

Thy mer­it through Thy grace.

Hail

ho­san­na

Da­vid’s Son!

Help

Lord

hear our sup­pli­ca­tion!

Let Thy king­dom

scep­ter

crown

Bring us bless­ing and sal­va­tion

That for­ev­er we may sing:

Hail

ho­san­na! to our king.
