Come, Let Us Lift Our Joyful Eyes (EN 5725)

EN 5725 Come, Let Us Lift Our Joyful Eyes

1John.2.1

Versi Version 1

1

Come, let us lift our joyful eyes

Up to the courts above,

And smile to see our Father there

Upon a throne of love.

2

Once ’twas a seat of dreadful wrath,

And shot devouring flame;

Our God appeared “consuming fire,”

And Vengeance was His Name.

3

Rich were the drops of Jesus’ blood

That calmed His frowning face,

That sprinkled o’er the burning throne,

And turned the wrath to grace.

4

Now we may bow before His feet,

And venture near the Lord;

No fiery cherub guards His seat,

Nor double-flaming sword.

5

The peaceful gates of heav’nly bliss

Are opened by the Son;

High let us raise our notes of praise,

And reach th’almighty throne.

6

To Thee ten thousand thanks we bring,

Great Advocate on high;

And glory to th’eternal King,

That lays His fury by.
