  Words by Joseph Swain, 1792. 1. Who can forbear to sing, Who can refuse to praise, When Zion's high, celestial King His saving power displays? 2. When sinners at His feet, By mercy conquer'd, fall; When grace, and truth, and justice meet, And peace invites them all. 3. When heaven's opening gates Invite the pilgrims' feet; And Jesus, at their entrance, waits To place them on His seat. 4. Who can forbear to praise Our high, celestial King, When sovereign, rich, redeeming grace Invites our tongues to sing! scripture
