Verse 1
Come, let us who in Christ believe,
With saints and angels join,
Glory, and praise, and blessing give,
And thanks to love divine.
Verse 2
Our friend in sure and certain hope
Hath laid his body down;
He knew that Christ shall raise him up
And give the starry crown.
Verse 3
To all who his appearing love
He opens paradise,
And we shall join the hosts above,
And we shall grasp the prize.
Verse 4
Then let us wait to see the day,
To hear the joyful word,
To answer, Lo! We come away,
We die to meet our Lord.
