64 Let Us All with Gladsome Voice

1 Let us all with gladsome voice Praise the God of heaven, Who, to bid our hearts rejoice, His own Son has given. 2 To this vale of tears he comes, Here to serve in sadness, That with him in heav'n's fair homes We may reign in gladness. 3 We are rich, for he was poor; Is not this a wonder? Therefore praise God evermore Here on earth and yonder. 4 O Lord Christ, our Savior dear, Bless us and be near us. Grant us now a glad new year. Amen, Jesus, hear us!
