lyricist: Joseph Proud, 1792

Come in

Thou bless­èd

hon­ored Lord!

By earth

by Heav’n

by all

ad­ored;

We hail Thee

wel­come

take Thy throne

!

And in Thy Zi­on reign alone.

Our on­ly Lord and God Thou art

Reign Thou the sov­er­eign of our hearts;

Thou King of glo­ry ev­er blest

By an­gels and by men con­fessed.

Thy Church now en­ter

Lord di­vine;

And be the king­dom ev­er Thine;

We hail Thee wel­come to Thy seat

And lay our hon­ors at Thy feet.

O hap­py Church

thy bliss how great!

The King

in all His heav’n­ly state

With thee for­ev­er will re­side:

Thy hus­band He and thou the bride.

Jesus

our grate­ful hearts re­joice

Since Thou hast made our souls Thy choice;

While here

our songs to Thee shall rise

And join the chor­us of the skies.
