LyicsZion, the marvellous story be telling,
The Son of the Highest, how lowly his birth;
The brightest of angels in glory excelling,
He stoops to redeem thee, he reigns upon earth.
CHORUS
O shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing,
Jerusalem triumphs - Messiah is King!
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,
His people with joy everlasting are crown'd.
CHORUS
O shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing,
Jerusalem triumphs - Messiah is King!
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.
CHORUS
O shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing,
Jerusalem triumphs - Messiah is King!
