Come, Christians, Join to Sing!

Two Angels Singing, by Benjamin West
Come, Christians, join to sing

Alleluia! Amen!


A lovely Spanish melody. Always reminds me of happiness and Christmastime.  I couldn't resist using the cembalo stop on this one. Adds to the Spanish flavor, I think. Bright. Happy. Hope you like it.





This arrangement comes from Sunday Morning Companion, Arr by Victor Labenske, found here. More details can be found on the Project Page.



Come, Christians, join to sing

Alleluia! Amen!
Loud praise to Christ our King;
Alleluia! Amen!
Let all, with heart and voice,
Before His throne rejoice;
Praise is His gracious choice.
Alleluia! Amen!



Come, lift your hearts on high,

Alleluia! Amen!
Let praises fill the sky;
Alleluia! Amen!
He is our Guide and Friend;
To us He’ll condescend;
His love shall never end.
Alleluia! Amen!



Praise yet our Christ again,

Alleluia! Amen!
Life shall not end the strain;
Alleluia! Amen!
On heaven’s blissful shore,
His goodness we’ll adore,
Singing forevermore,
“Alleluia! Amen!”
