Crowning Day No. 3 ‎#74

74. Song of Gladness

1 Hallelujah, song of gladness,
Song of everlasting joy;
Hallelujah, song the sweetest
That can angel hosts employ.

Refrain:
Praise ye the Lord, sweet peace He gave me;
Praise ye the Lord, He died to save me;
Praise His name, He’ll never leave me;
Hallelujah, praise the Lord.

2 Hallelujah, church victorious,
Thou may’st raise this joyful strain;
Hallelujah, songs of triumph
Well befit the ransom’d train. [Refrain]

3 Hallelujah, let our voices
Rise to Heav’n with full accord;
Hallelujah, ev’ry moment,
Brings us nearer to the Lord. [Refrain]
