Lyrics

O come and to Je­ho­vah sing,
To Him our voic­es raise;
Let us in our most joy­ful songs
The Lord our Sav­ior praise,
The Lord our Sav­ior praise.

Before His pre­sence let us come
With praise and thank­ful voice;
Let us sing psalms to Him with grace,
With grate­ful hearts rejoice,
With grate­ful hearts rejoice.

Jehovah is a migh­ty king,
Above all gods His throne;
The depths of earth are in His hand,
The mount­ains are His own,
The mount­ains are His own.

To Him the spa­cious sea be­longs,
He made its waves and tides;
And by His hand the ris­ing land
Was formed, and still abides,
Was formed, and still abides.

O come, and bow­ing down to Him
Our wor­ship let us bring;
Yea, let us kneel be­fore the Lord,
Our mak­er and our king,
Our mak­er and our king.
