Joyfully Bound
1. Come humbly to the waters
And in Christ be born anew.
Come make the Lord a promise;
Come rejoicing as you do.
Come mourn with those in mourning;
Comfort those who stand in need.
Come and stand as living witness
In your word and very deed.
[Chorus]
We are joyfully, joyfully bound
By cov’nant to the Father!
Rejoice in the happy sound
As we raise our voices in praise!
We are joyfully, joyfully bound
By cov’nant to the Savior!
Rejoice and witness to all this day;
We are joyfully, joyfully bound!
2. Come meekly to His table
On each blessed Sabbath day.
Renew your sacred cov’nant
To receive His holy name.
We promise to remember
As we promise to obey;
Then we’ll always have His Spirit
To abide with us each day.
[Chorus]
We are joyfully, joyfully bound
By cov’nant to the Father!
Rejoice in the happy sound
As we raise our voices in praise!
We are joyfully, joyfully bound
By cov’nant to the Savior!
Rejoice and witness to all this day;
We are joyfully, joyfully bound!
3. Come gladly to the temple
To receive God’s holy pow’r.
Come cov’nant with the Father;
Give your will to Him each hour.
Go forward armed with power,
With His name upon your heart;
And His angels will surround you,
With His glory round about.
[Chorus]
We are joyfully, joyfully bound
By cov’nant to the Father!
Rejoice in the happy sound
As we raise our voices in praise!
We are joyfully, joyfully bound
By cov’nant to the Savior!
Rejoice and witness to all this day;
We are joyfully, joyfully bound!
