O, let us exalt our dear Lord and proclaim,
In songs of true gratitude, praise to His name!
As songs of the angels in sweetest accord,
Our thanks and our praises shall rise to the Lord.

Lyrics
Come, come, sweet rest,
Which leads to God
And brings us to our blessed Saviour.
In that blest place,
Where face to face,
The ransomed host sings to God's praise and favor.

Hence vanity,
E'en world and time!
My heart longs for its home in heaven.
Here tears oppress,
But all distress
Shall change to joy when His reward is given.

Thou city pure
With walls secure,
With precious jewels brightly beaming;
Celestial lights
Are shining bright;
The light from God and the blest Lamb is streaming.

And holiness,
That pure white dress,
Is there Thy host with grace adorning.
Our thanks and praise
To God we'll raise,
With joyful songs of gratitude resounding.

Come, come, sweet rest,
Us from distress,
From cross and sorrow to deliver.
Eternity
Where we shall be
United with eternal joys forever.
