May we, who know the joyful sound

Verse 1

May we who know the joyful sound Still practice what we know, Not hearers of the word alone But doers of it, too.

Verse 2

By acts of mercy let us show We have not heard in vain, But kindly feel another's woe And long to ease his pain.

Verse 3

Thankful that we the gospel hear And love the joyful sound, Oh, may its sacred fruits appear And in our lives abound.
