O Come, Let Us Sing unto the Lord - Hymn with Lyrics

1. Come, let us sing unto the Lord,
New songs of praise with sweet accord;
For wonders great by Him are done;
His hand and arm have victory won.

2. The great salvation of our God
Is seen through all the earth abroad;
Before the heathen’s wond'ring sight,
He hath revealed His truth and right.

3. He called to mind His truth and grace
In promise made to Israel’s race;
And unto earth’s remotest bound,
Glad tidings of salvation sound.

4. All lands to God lift up your voice;
Sing praise to Him, with shouts rejoice;
With voice of joy and loud acclaim,
Let all unite and praise His Name.

5. Praise God with harp, with harp sing praise,
With voice of psalms His glory raise;
With trumpets, cornets, gladly sing
And shout before the Lord, the King.

6. Let earth be glad, let billow roar
And all that dwell from shore to shore;
Let floods clap hands with one accord,
Let hills rejoice before the Lord.

7. For lo, he comes; at his command
all nations shall in judgment stand;
In justice robes and throned in light,
the Lord shall judge, dispensing right.

Scripture
Psalm 98; Psalm 95:1

 
The hymn "O Come, Let Us Sing Unto the Lord" was written by William Bright in 1866. William Bright was an Anglican clergyman and hymn writer who composed several well-known hymns, including this one.

The hymn is based on Psalm 95, and it reflects the themes of worship and praise to God, calling the faithful to come together and sing joyfully before Him. It has since become a staple in Christian liturgical settings.
