1 Rejoice and be glad!
The Redeemer had come;
Go, look on His cradle,
His cross, and His tomb.
Refrain:
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!
For the Lamb that was slain
o'er death is triumphant,
and liveth again. [Refrain]
3 Rejoice and be glad!
Now the pardon is free;
The just for the unjust
hath died on the tree. [Refrain]
4 Rejoice and be glad!
For our King is on high;
He pleadeth for us on
His throne in the sky. [Refrain]
5 Rejoice and be glad!
For He cometh again;
He cometh in glory,
the Lamb that was slain. [Refrain]
