worship song lyrics

1.Joyful, joyful, we adore Thee,
God of glory, Lord of love;
Hearts unfold like flowers before thee,
Opening to the sun above.
Melt the clouds of sin and sad ness;
Drive the dark of doubt away;
Giver of immortal gladness,
Fill us with the light of day!

2. All Thy works with joy surround Thee,
Earth and heav’n reflect Thy rays,
Stars and angels sing around Thee,
Center of unbroken praise.
Field and forest, vale and mountrain,
Flowery meadow, flashing sea,
Chanting bird and flowing fountain
Call us to rejoice in Thee.

3. Thou art giving and forgiving,
Ever blessing, ever blest,
Well-spring of the joy of living,
Ocean depth of happy rest!
Thou our Father, Christ our
Brother All who live in love are Thine;
Teach us how to love each other,
Lift us to the joy divine.

4. Mortals join the mighty chorus
Which the morning stars began;
Father love is reigning o’er us,
Brother love binds man to man.
Ever singing, march we onward,
Victors in the midst of strife;
Joyful music leads us sunward
In the triumph song of life.

1.Jesus, where’er Thy people meet,
There they behold Thy mercy-seat:
Where’er they seek Thee, Thou art found,
And every place is hallowed ground.

2.For Thou, within no walls confined.
Inhabitest the humble mind
Such ever bring Thee where they come,
And going, take Thee to their home.

3.Great Shepherd of Thy chosen few,
Thy former mercies here renew.
Here to our waiting hearts proclaim
The sweetness of Thy saving Name.

4. Here may we prove the power of prayer,
To strengthen faith, and sweeten care;
To teach our faint desires to rise,
And bring all heaven before our eyes.

5. Lord, we are few, but Thou art near,
Nor short Thine arm, nor deaf Thine ear;
Oh, rend the heavens, come quickly down,
And make a thousand hearts Thine own!

1. Jesus, the very thought of Thee
With sweetness fills my breast;
But sweeter far Thy face to see,
And in Thy presence rest.

2. Nor voice can sing, nor heart can frame,
Nor can the memory find
A sweeter sound than Thy blest Name,
O Saviour of mankind!

3. Oh, hope of every contrite heart,
Oh, joy of all the meek;
To those who fall, how kinds
Thou art,
How good to those who seek!

4.But what to those who find? Ah! this
Nor tongue nor pen can show;
The love of Jesus, what it is
None but His loved ones know.

5. Jesus, our only joy be Thou,
As Thou our prize wilt be;
Jesus, be Thou our glory now,
And through eternity.

1.Jesus, the Name high over all,
In hell, or earth, or sky:
Angels and men before it fall,
And devils fear and fly.

2. Jesus, the Name to sinners dear.
The Name to sinners given;
It scatters all their guilty fear,
It turns their hell to heaven.

3. Jesus, the prisoner’s fetters breaks,
And bruises Satan’s head;
Power into strengthless souls it speak,
And life into the dead.

4.Oh, that the world might taste and see
The riches of His grace!
The arms of love that compass me
Would all mankind embrace.

5. His only righteousness I show,
His saving truth proclaim:
“Tis all my business here below
To cry, “Behold the Lamb!”

6. Happy, if with my last breath
I may but gasp His Name:
Preach Him to all, and cry in death;
Behold behold the Lamb!”

1.Jesus shall reign where’er the sun
Doth his successive journeys run;
His kingdom stretch from shore to shore
Till moons shall wax and wane no more.

2.For him shall endless prayer be made,
And princes throng to crown His head;
His name like sweet perfume shall rise
With every morning sacrifice.

3. People and realms of every tongue
Dwell on His love with sweetest song:
And infant voices shall proclaim
Their early blessings of novi on His Name.

4. Blessings abound where’er He reigns;
The prisoner leaps toile ms lose his chains,
The weary find eternal rest,
And all the sons of want are blest.

5. Let every creature rise and bring.
Peculiar honours to our king:
Angels descend with songs again,
And Earth repeat the loud Amen!
