Come, Ye Faithful, Raise The Anthem

Come, ye faithful, raise the anthem,

Cleave the skies with shouts of praise;

Sing to Him Who found a ransom,

Ancient of eternal days,

God of God, the Word Incarnate,

Whom the heaven of heaven obeys.

Ere He raised the lofty mountains,

Formed the seas, or built the sky,

Love eternal, free, and boundless,

Moved the Lord of Life to die,

Foreordained the Prince of Princes

For the throne of Calvary.

There, for us and our redemption,

See Him all His life blood pour!

There He wins our full salvation,

Dies that we may die no more;

Then, arising, lives forever,

Reigning where He was before.

High on yon celestial mountains

Stands His sapphire throne, all bright,

Midst unending alleluias

Bursting from the sons of light;

Sion's people tell His praises,

Victor after hard won fight.

Bring your harps, and bring your incense,

Sweep the string and pour the lay;

Let the earth proclaim His wonders,

King of that celestial day;

He the Lamb once slain is worthy,

Who was dead and lives for ay.

Laud and honor to the Father,

Laud and honor to the Son,

Laud and honor to the Spirit,

Ever Three and ever One,

Consubstantial, co-eternal,

While unending ages run.
