   So this is the song that Isaiah and Andrew are sharing with us, we think, this Sunday.
   
   "come away"
   music and lyrics by Andrew Peterson & Isaiah Micu (Fall 2005)
   original lyrics by Charles Wesley (1755)
   
   we await Your return
   when our sorrow and suff'ring will end
   all our lives, we have yearned
   for the Highest of Heights to descend
   
   Come away to the skies, my beloved, arise
   And rejoice in the day you were born
   On this glorious day, come exulting away,
   And with singing to Zion return
   
   Now with singing and praise let us spend all our days
   By our heavenly Father bestowed,
   While His grace we receive from His bounty, and live
   To the honor and glory of God
   
   We have stored up our love up our treasure above,
   Though our bodies continue below
   The redeemed of the Lord will remember His Word,
   And with singing to paradise go
   
   For the glory we first were created to share,
   Both the nature and kingdom divine,
   Now created again that our lives may remain
   Throughout time and eternity Thine
   
   We with thanks do approve the design of that love
   that has joined us to our Saviour's Name
   Now united in heart, let us never more part
   Till we sit at the feet of the Lamb
   
   There, Oh! there at His feet, we shall all one day meet,
   And be parted in body no more
   As we give up our crowns, all as one we'll bow down,
   And our Savior in glory adore
   
   Hallelujah! Christ, our wonderful Saviour,
   His rapturous praises repeat
   To the Lamb that was slain, Hallelujah again
   Sing all Heaven and fall at His feet
   Sing all Heaven and fall at His feet
   Sing all Heaven and fall at His feet
   
   Sing all Heaven and fall at His feet
