Come, Let Us All with One Accord
VERSE 1
Come, let us all with one accord
Adore and magnify the Lord,
And festive service pay.
VERSE 2
On this the day that God hath blest,
The day of peace and heavenly rest,
The Lord’s own holy day.
VERSE 3
That saw primeval darkness break,
And that more glorious life awake
That lasteth evermore.
VERSE 4
That saw hell’s legions prostrate fall,
And Christ, triumphant over all,
His own to heaven restore.
VERSE 5
This day the peace that flows from heaven
Was unto the Apostles given,
When doors were closed at night.
VERSE 6
This day the Holy Spirit’s flame
Upon the Church’s teachers came,
And filled their souls with light.
VERSE 7
Still on this day with trumpet sound
The Gospel notes were ringing round,
To call the world to pray.
VERSE 8
Then on this day let us adore
Our God and supplication pour,
That, when worlds pass away,
VERSE 9
Through Christ’s dear grace our souls may rest
In peace and joy, forever blest,
Till the great Judgment Day.
