COME, LET US TO THE LORD RETURN
1.
Come, let us to the LORD our God-
With contrite hearts return;
Our God is gracious, nor will leave-
The desolate to mourn.
2.
His voice commands the tempest forth,
And stills the stormy wave;
And, though His arm be strong to smite-
’Tis also strong to save.
3.
Long hath the night of sorrow reigned;
The dawn shall bring us light;
God shall appear, and we shall rise-
With gladness in His sight.
4.
Our hearts, if God we seek to know,
Shall know Him, and rejoice;
His coming like the morn shall be,
Like morning songs His voice.
5.
As dew upon the tender herb,
Diffusing fragrance round,
As showers that usher in the spring,
And cheer the thirsty ground.
6.
So shall His presence bless our souls,
And shed a joyful light;
That hallowèd morn shall chase away-
The sorrows of the night.
A blessèd Seventh Day Sabbath to all believers.
In the Son’s Name - For the Father’s glory.
