Converts Welcomed. (940) Come in, thou blessed of the Lord! Enter in Jesus' precious name; We welcome thee, with one accord, And trust the Savior does the same. 2 Those joys, which earth cannot afford, We'll seek in fellowship to prove, Joined in one spirit to our Lord, Together bound by mutual love. 3 And, while we pass this vale of tears, We'll make our joys and sorrows known; We'll share each other's hopes and fears, And count a brother's case our own. 4 Once more, our welcome we repeat; Receive assurance of our love; Oh! may we all together meet, Around the throne of God above. Thomas Kelly, 1812.
