New Concord

1. How happy are they
Who their Saviour obey,
And have laid up their treasure above!
Tongue cannot express
The sweet comfort and peace
Of a soul in its earliest love.

2. That comfort was mine,
When the favor divine
I first found in the blood of the Lamb;
When my heart it believed,
What a joy it received,
What a heaven in Jesus’s Name!

3. ‘Twas a heaven below,
My Redeemer to know,
The angels could do nothing more,
Than fall at His feet,
And the story repeat,
And the Lover of sinners adore.
