The Cyber Hymnal ‎#5771

5771. Rejoice, Rejoice, the Lost Is Found

1. Joyfully march along, and shout the song
To the earth217;s remotest bound,
Salvation217;s come, the wand217;rer217;s home.
The lost one now is found.
Rejoice! Rejoice! with heart and voice;
Repeat the welcome sound!

Refrain
With songs of joy, your tongues employ,
And repeat the welcome sound,
Salvation217;s come! The wand217;rer217;s home,
The lost one now is found!

2. Wanderer far away from love today,
In the sea of sin so low,
A call from home now bids you Come,
Arise and say, I217;ll go.
Your vacant chair is waiting there,
And raiment white as snow! [Refrain]

3. Joyfully angels bring the signet ring,
Of a Father217;s pard217;ning grace,
And royal fare, they now prepare,
Before His smiling face,
Away with fears! away with tears!
Receive His fond embrace! [Refrain]

4. Heavenly home! sweet home!
How sweet to roam
Thro217; thy realm of beauty rare,
With angel throng, join in a song
Of joy beyond compare.
Redeemer! King! forever sing
The loved ones gathered there! [Refrain]
