-Come, let us join our cheerful songs
-With angels round the throne;
-Ten thousand thousand are their tongues,
-But all their joys are one.
-Let all that dwell above the sky,
-And air, and earth, and seas,
-Conspire to lift Thy glories high,
-And speak thine endless praise.
-The whole creation join in one,
-To bless the sacred name
-Of Him that sits upon the throne,
-And to adore the Lamb.
