|
<p>Come, pure hearts, in sweetest measure,<br>
|
|
Sing of those who spread the treasure<br>
|
|
In the holy Gospels shrined;<br>
|
|
Blessèd tidings of salvation,<br>
|
|
Peace on earth their proclamation,<br>
|
|
Love from God to lost mankind.</p>
|
|
<p>See the rivers four that gladden,<br>
|
|
With their streams, the better Eden<br>
|
|
Planted by our Lord most dear;<br>
|
|
Christ the Fountain, these the waters;<br>
|
|
Drink, O Zion’s sons and daughters,<br>
|
|
Drink, and find salvation here.</p>
|
|
<p>Here our souls, by Jesus sated,<br>
|
|
More and more shall be translated<br>
|
|
Earth’s temptations far above;<br>
|
|
Freed from sin’s abhorred dominion,<br>
|
|
Soaring on an angel pinion,<br>
|
|
They shall reach the Source of love.</p>
|
|
<p>Then shall thanks and praise ascending<br>
|
|
For Thy mercies without ending<br>
|
|
Rise to Thee, O Savior blest,<br>
|
|
With Thy gracious aid defend us,<br>
|
|
Let Thy guiding light attend us,<br>
|
|
Bring us to Thy place of rest.</p>
|
|
<p>O that we, thy truth confessing,<br>
|
|
And Thy holy Word possessing,<br>
|
|
Jesus, may Thy love adore;<br>
|
|
Unto Thee our voices raising,<br>
|
|
Thee with all Thy ransomed praising,<br>
|
|
Ever and forevermore.</p>
