Come, Christians Join To Sing
During the 2007-2008 season, Jeorge, Uncle Jim, and the whole crew will be
presenting a ventriloquism program and concert entitled Join The Chorus.
This song, Come, Christians Join To Sing will introduce the "Join The
Chorus" theme, and will be performed by Jeorge the Dodo Bird. In keeping with
the "Join The Chorus" theme, Jeorge will ask the congregation to join in
singing the "Alleluia, Amen" every time it appears.
I first learned this song in 4/4 time, which is how it is written in most hymnbooks I've seen, but a few
years ago our church choir sang a medley that had this song in 6/8 time, and I really liked the way it sounded, so
this is how Jeorge will be singing it!
Come
Christians Join To Sing (this is the entire song; a large download!)
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 praisees 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!
