Come, let us join our cheerful songs
With angels round the throne;
Ten thousand thousand are their tongues,
But all their joys are one.
Come let us join our cheerful Songs, Stanza 1

The whole creation join in one,
To bless the sacred name
Of Him who sits upon the throne,
And to adore the Lamb.
Come let us join our cheerful Songs, Stanza 5
