REJOICE and be glad!
The Redeemer has come!
Go look on His cradle,
His cross and His tomb.
Sound His praises, tell the Story,
Of Him who was slain;
Sound His praises, tell with gladness,
He liveth again.
2
Rejoice and be glad!
It is sunshine at last!
The clouds have departed,
The shadows are past.
3
Rejoice and be glad!
For the blood hath been shed;
Redemption is finished,
The price hath been paid.
4
Rejoice and be glad!
Now the pardon is free!
The Just for the unjust
Has died on the tree.
5
Rejoice and be glad!
For the Lamb that was slain
O’er death is triumphant,
And liveth again.
6
Rejoice and be glad!
For our King is on high,
He pleadeth for us on
His throne in the sky.
7
Rejoice and be glad!
For He cometh again;
He cometh in glory,
The Lamb that was slain.
Sound His praises, tell the Story,
Of Him who was slain;
Sound His praises, tell with gladness,
He cometh again.
