Come, Ye That Love the Lord Lyrics
1 Come, we that love the Lord,
and let our joys be known.
Join in a song with sweet accord,
join in a song with sweet accord,
and thus surround the throne,
and thus surround the throne.
Refrain:
We’re marching to Zion,
beautiful, beautiful Zion.
We’re marching upward to Zion,
the beautiful city of God.
2 The hill of Zion yields
a thousand sacred sweets,
before we reach the heavenly fields,
before we reach the heavenly fields,
or walk the golden streets,
or walk the golden streets. [Refrain]
3 Then let our songs abound,
and every tear be dry.
We’re marching thro’ Immanuel’s ground,
we’re marching thro’ Immanuel’s ground,
to fairer worlds on high,
to fairer worlds on high. [Refrain]
Come, Ye That Love the Lord Hymn Story
“Come Ye that Love the Lord” is a hymn that was written by Isaac Watts. The tune that we use nowadays is from Robert Lowry.
It is a call to all Christians to come and let our joys be known. And to show that by singing to the Lord.
Then the chorus mentions the fact that we are marching upward to Zion, the beautiful city that God has prepared for all those that love him.
It then goes on to describe the city of Zion. A city that has golden streets.
