God's Holy Son is near at hand,
the healing power in this our land,
Yesu our Savior, Monarch of all.
Christ has been sent to set us free,
by faith in Christ we now can see;
the darkness lightens, rejoice my soul.
1 Leap, leap my soul, leap, leap my soul,
our God, has come to make us whole.
Rejoice and sing, God is at hand,
our Yesu reigns o'er every land. [Refrain]
2 Dance, dance my soul, dance, dance my soul,
sing out, my heart, answer God's call.
Yesu has come, God's word is clear,
releasing all God's children here. [Refrain[
3 Sing out my soul, sing out my soul,
our peace has come, pardon for all.
Christ rules this world, makes all things new,
gives us fresh trust in friendship true. [Refrain]
4 Rejoice, my soul, rejoice my soul,
the way is clear before us all.
God wants us now and makes us one;
God sets our feet this race to run. [Refrain] Topics: Songs of Dedication and Service Used With Tune: DUKA, DUKA Text Sources: Inspired by Tumbuka hymn in Malawi by Peter Z. Thole
