LyicsCHO.- Shout the glad tidings! ex-ult-ing-ly sing,
Je-ru-sa-lem triumphs!
Mes-si-ah is King!
Zi-on, the marvelous sto-ry telling,
The Son of the Highest, how lowly his birth!...
The brightest of angels in glo-ry ex-celling,
He stoops to redeem thee-he reigns upon earth
Tell how he cometh from nation to nation,
The heart-cheering news let the earth echo round,
How free to the sinner he offers salvation!
How his people with joy everlasting are crowned!
Mortals, your homage be gratefully bringing,
And sweet let the gladsome hosanna arise;
You angels, the full hallelujah be singing-
One chorus resound through the earth and the skies!
