Golden Streets by Jeremiah Ingalls — Lyrics
Come, we that love the Lord,
And let our joys be known;
Join in a song with sweet accord,
And thus surround the throne.
The sorrows of the mind
Be banished from the place;

About Golden Streets
Jeremiah Ingalls’s Golden Streets is a joyous congregational hymn set for treble, bass, and tenor voices. Ingalls, a prominent American singing school teacher and composer, crafted this anthem to express the jubilant spirit of believers. The text, beginning "Come, we that love the Lord," invites the faithful to share their gladness and unite in praise, banishing sorrow and celebrating their heavenly King. Its straightforward, affirmative message and sturdy, homophonic texture make it an accessible and uplifting choice for any sacred setting where heartfelt devotion is to the fore.
