With reverence let the saints appear

1

With reverence let the saints appear,And bow before the Lord;His high commands with reverence hear,And tremble at his word.

2

How terrible thy glories be!How bright thine armies shine!Where is the power that vies with thee,Or truth compared with thine?

3

Sing, all ye ransomed of the Lord,Your great Deliverer sing;Ye pilgrims now for Zion bound,Be joyful in your King.

4

O Jesus, Lord of earth and heaven,Our life and joy, to theeBe honor, thanks, and blessing givenThrough all eternity.

5

Now I am thine, forever thine,Nor shall my purpose move;Thy hand hath loosed my bonds of pain,And bound me with thy love.

6

Here in thy courts I leave my vow,And thy rich grace record;Witness, ye saints, who hear me now,If I forsake the Lord.
