King of Saints.
1 Y^OME, ye that love the Saviour’s name,
^ And joy to make it known,
; The sov’reign of your heart proclaim.
And bow before his throne.
| -2 Behold your King, your Saviour crown’d
With glories 'all divine ;
(, And tell the wond’ring nations round.
How bright these glories shine.
3 Infinite pow’r and boundless grace
In him unite their rays :
Ye that have e’er beheld his face,
t Can ye forbear his praise ?
;,;4 When in his earthly courts we view
The glories of our King;
| We long to love as angels do.
And wish like them to sing.
5 And shall we long and wish in vain ?
Lord, teach our song to rise:
V Thy love can animate the strain.
And bid it reach the skies.
6 O happy period ! glorious day!
When heav’n and earth shall raise
With all their pow’rs, the raptur’d lay,
To celebrate thy praise!

He meekly bore the mighty load;
