Sunshine ‎#8

8. Praise the Lord

1 Now let us sing the Angels’ song,
That rang so sweet and clear,
When heav’nly light and music fell
On earthly eye and ear;
To Him we sing, our Savior King,
Who left His throne and crown,
And with redeeming grace and pow’r,
In love to earth came down.

Refrain:
Sing, sing the joyful chorus!
Hark, hear the echo o’er us,
From millions gone before us,
Praise, oh, praise the Lord!

2 He came to tell the Father’s love,
His goodness, truth and grace;
To show the brightness of His smile,
The glory of His face;
He came to bring the weary ones
True peace and perfect rest;
To take away the guilt and sin
That darkened and distressed. [Refrain]

3 He came that great and small might hear
His call, and in Him live,—
That to the burd’ned and oppressed
Salvation He might give;
He came to bring a glorious gift,
“Good will to men”—and why?
Because He loved us, Jesus came,
For us to live and die. [Refrain]
