With cheerful songs
and hymns of praise,
Our grateful hearts
to Him we raise,
Who Leads us on
with gentle hand,
And crowns with love
Our Christian Band.
Then gladly let us stand,
United heart and hand,
The lost to gather in
From sorrow, pain, and sin;
Be this our constant aim—
To spread abroad the name
Of Jesus our Redeemer,
And His wondrous love proclaim.
And while we meet
together here,
In bounds of love
and friendship dear,
Oh, may our prayers
like incense rise,
To Him whose grace
each need supplies.
Then gladly let us stand,
United heart and hand,
The lost to gather in
From sorrow, pain, and sin;
Be this our constant aim—
To spread abroad the name
Of Jesus our Redeemer,
And His wondrous love proclaim.
O Thou who art
the children’s Friend,
Our steps direct,
our paths defend,
And by Thine own
almighty hand
Protect and keep
our Christian Band.
Then gladly let us stand,
United heart and hand,
The lost to gather in
From sorrow, pain, and sin;
Be this our constant aim—
To spread abroad the name
Of Jesus our Redeemer,
And His wondrous love proclaim.
