Joyful be the hours to-day;
Joyful let the season be;
Let us sing, for well we may;
Jesus! we will sing of thee.
Should thy people silent be,
Then the very stones would sing;
What a debt we owe to thee,
Thee, our Saviour, thee our King!
Joyful are we now to own,
Rapture thrills us as we trace
All the deeds thy love hath done,
All the riches of thy grace.
‘Tis thy grace alone can save;
Eve blessing comes from thee—
All we have and hope to have;
All we are and hope to be.
Thine the Name to sinners dear!
Thine the Name all names before;
Blesséd here and everywhere;
Blesséd now and evermore!
