Come, let us join our cheerful songs by Edward Vine Hall — Lyrics
Come, let us join our cheerful songs
With angels round the throne;
Ten thousand thousand are their tongues,
But all their joys are one.
"Worthy the Lamb that died," they cry,
"To be exalted thus:"
"Worthy the Lamb," our lips reply,
"For he was slain for us."
Jesus is worthy to receive
Honour and power divine;

About Come, let us join our cheerful songs
Edward Vine Hall composed this sacred anthem for SATB choir. The English text is a hymn of praise, focusing on the adoration of the Lamb and the exalted nature of Christ. The lyrics speak of the heavenly host joining with earthly voices in a unified song of blessing and glory to God. The text reflects a deep theological theme of redemption and worship, celebrating the sacrifice of the Lamb and the infinite worthiness of Christ. The anthem is a powerful call to collective praise, encompassing all creation in a shared act of adoration.
