8.7.8.7.8.7
When mankind all fell in Adam
God revealed his saving plan
To redeem his chosen people
Through Eve’s seed, the Son of Man.
Come and worship! Come and worship!
Worship Christ our promised King!
Christ the Saviour walked among us
God the King was born a child.
The all-conquering Lord of Armies
Dwelt on earth so meek and mild.
Come and worship! Come and worship!
Worship Christ our humble King!
Nailed upon the cross he suffered
Hell’s eternal agony.
So that He might claim his people
And in Him we could be free.
Come and worship! Come and worship!
Worship Christ our suff’ring King!
Boundless on that day His vict’ry
Over Satan and the grave.
Bursting forth from death’s dominion,
Sealing life for those he’d save.
Come and worship! Come and worship!
Worship Christ our risen King!
Now in heaven, fully radiant:
Reigning, ruling, evermore.
Eyes like flames of fire are burning,
Voice like many waters’ roar.
Come and worship! Come and worship!
Worship Christ our reigning King!
He shall come to judge the nations
with his flaming sword in hand.
Trumpets shall resound before him
And no foe can him withstand.
Come and worship! Come and worship!
Worship Christ our coming King!
Christ in all of heaven’s fullness
Yet still cares for us below.
Watches, guards, protects and guides us
That we might his presence know.
Come and worship! Come and worship!
Worship Christ our watching King!
Angels and the bright archangels
Glorious hosts of heaven above.
Look on earth in watching wonder
At our King’s redeeming love.
Come and worship! Come and worship!
Worship our redeeming King!
Christ the word of God the Father
From before the world began.
Born to give His life a ransom
For the sin of fallen man.
Come and worship! Come and worship!
Worship our incarnate King!
Sun and moon bow down before him
He who spoke them into place
Satan and his servants tremble
When they see His shining face.
Come and worship! Come and worship!
Worship Christ our glorious King!
Hands that built the starry heavens
Stooped to wash disciples’ feet.
He whose word sustains the planets
Came to earth our needs to meet.
Come and worship! Come and worship!
Worship Christ our servant King!
