Song Number: 21 Key: D Time: 4/4 BPM: 80-96 Sung: Joyfully
1.
D
Come, lis-ten to a proph-et’s voice,
A D A7 D
And hear the word of God,
D
And in the way of truth re-joice,
A D E A
And sing for joy a - loud.
D A7 D
We’ve found the way the proph-ets went
Em A
Who lived in days of yore.
D
An- oth-er proph-et now is sent
F#m D A7 D
This knowl-edge to re - store.
2.
D
The gloom of sul-len dark-ness spread
A D A7 D
Thru earth’s ex-tend-ed space
D
Is ban-ished by our liv-ing Head,
A D E A
And God has shown his face.
D A7 D
Thru err-ing schemes in days now past
Em A
The world has gone a - stray;
D
Yet Saints of God have found at last
F#m D A7 D
The straight and nar-row way.
3.
D
’Tis not in man they put their trust
A D A7 D
Nor on his arm re - ly.
D
Full well as-sured, all are ac-cursed
A D E A
Who Je-sus Christ de - ny.
D A7 D
The Sav-ior to his peo-ple saith,
Em A
“Let all my words o-bey,
D
And signs shall fol-low liv-ing faith,
F#m D A7 D
Down to the lat- est day.”
4.
D
Then heed the words of truth and light
A D A7 D
That flow from foun-tains pure.
D
Yea, keep His law with all thy might
A D E A
Till thine e-lec-tion’s sure,
D A7 D
Till thou shalt hear the ho-ly voice
Em A
As-sure e-ter-nal reign,
D
While joy and cheer at-tend thy choice,
F#m D A7 D
As one who shall ob - tain.
