Come, let us ascend
Hymnal: A Pocket hymn-book, designed as a constant companion for the pious #CLXXXIX (1790) Topics: For Persons joined in Fellowship Lyrics: 1 Come let us ascend,
My companion and friend,
To a taste of the banquet above!
If thy heart be as mine,
If or Jesus it pine,
Come up into the chariot of love.
2 Who in Jesus confide,
They are bold to outride
The storms of affliction beneath!
With the prophet they soar
To that heavenly shore,
And out-fly all the arrows of death.
3 By faith we are come
To our permanent home:
By hope we the rapture improve;
By love we still rise,
And look down on the skies,
For the heaven of heavens is love.
4 Who on earth can conceive
How happy we live
In the city of God, the great King?
What a concert of praise,
When our Jesus's grace,
The whole heavenly company sing?
5 What a rapturous song,
When the glorify'd throng
In the spirit of harmony join?
Join all the glad choirs,
Hearts, voices and lyres,
And the burden is mercy divine.
6 Hallelujah they cry
To the King of the sky,
To the great everlasting I AM;
To the Lamb who was slain,
And liveth again,
Hallelujah to God and the Lamb.
7 The Lamb on the throne,
Lo! he dwells with his own,
And to rivers of pleasure he leads;
With his mercy's full blaze,
With the sight of his face,
Our beatify'd spirits he feeds.
8 Our foreheads proclaim
His ineffable name;
Our bodies his glory display;
A day without night
We feast in his sight,
And eternity seems as a day! Languages: English
Come, let us ascend
Thou God of truth and love
Hymnal: A Pocket hymn-book, designed as a constant companion for the pious #CXCII (1790) Topics: For Persons joined in Fellowship Lyrics: 1 Thou God of truth and love,
We seek thy perfect way,
Ready thy choice t' approve,
Thy providence t' obey,
Enter into thy wise design,
And sweetly lose our will in thine.
2 Why hast thou cast our lot
In the same age and place?
And why together brought
To see each other's face;
To join with softest sympathy,
And mix our friendly souls in thee?
3 Didst thou not make us one,
That we might one remain,
Together travel on,
And bear each other's pain,
Till all thy utmost goodness prove,
And rise renew'd in perfect love?
4 Surely thou didst unite
Our kindred spirits here,
That all hereafter might
Before thy throne appear;
Meet at the marriage of the Lamb,
And all thy glorious love proclaim.
5 Then let us ever bear
The blessed end in view,
And join with mutual care,
To fight our passage through;
And kindly help each other on,
Till all receive thy starry crown.
6 O may thy spirit seal
Our souls unto that day!
With all thy fulness fill,
And then transport away!
Away to our eternal rest,
Away to our Redeemer's breast! Languages: English
Thou God of truth and love
Blest be the dear, uniting love
Hymnal: A Pocket Hymn Book #CCI (1791) Topics: For Persons joined in Fellowship Parting Lyrics: 1 Blest be the dear, uniting love,
That will not let us part!
Our bodies may far off remove,
We still are one in heart.
2 Join'd in one spirit to our Head,
Where he appoints, we go;
And still in Jesu's footsteps tread,
And shew his praise below.
3 O may we ever walk in him,
And nothing know beside,
Nothing desire, nothing esteem,
But Jesus crucify'd!
4 Closer and closer let us cleave
To his belov'd embrace;
Expect his fulness to receive,
And grace to answer grace.
5 Partakers of the Saviour's grace,
The same in mind and heart,
Nor joy, nor grief, nor time, nor place,
Nor life, nor death can part.
6 But let us hasten to the day
Which shall our flesh restore;
When death shall all be done away,
And bodies part no more! Languages: English

Till his banner unfurl'd in the air;
From our graves we shall see,
And cry out, "It is he,"
And fly up to acknowledge him there. Languages: English

Master of all our praise,
Subject of all our songs;

And part exulting in thy name.

But still in spirit join'd,
T'embrace the happy toil,
Thou hast to each assign'd;
And, while we do thy blessed will,
We bear our heav'n about us still.

In all thy pleasant ways,
And, arm'd with patience, run
With joy th' appointed race!
Keep us, and every seeking soul,
Till all attain the heav'nly goal.

When all our toils are o'er,
And death, and grief, and pain,
And parting are no more.

And grasp thee in the flaming skies.

That calls thy exiles home!

The earth receive its doom;
Earth we shall view and heav'n destroy'd,
And shout above the fiery void!

And labour to be found
Of him in spotless peace;

Jesu, united by thy grace

And each to each endeared,
With confidence we seek thy face,
And know our pray'r is heard.

And bear thine easy yoke,
A band of love, a three-fold cord,
Which never can be broke.

Baptize into thy name;
And let us always kindly think,
And sweetly speak the same.

Let all our hearts agree;
And ever tow'rds each other move,
And ever move tow'rds thee.

Let all our spirits cleave;

That was in thee receive!

Thy spotless charity;
O let us still, we pray, possess,
The mind that was in thee!

Insensibly remove;

Made perfect first in love.

Into their paradise;
And thence on wings of eagles ride
Triumphant through the skies.

The same delight we prove,
In earth, in paradise, in heav'n,
Our All in All is love. Languages: English
