And happy are they who to Jesus belong:
So let the world know, as we join in Christingle,
that Jesus, the Hope of the world, is our song.
2 O bright is the flame of the candle you give us!
And happy are they who to Jesus belong:
So let the world know, as we join in Christingle,
that Jesus, the Light of the world, is our song.
3 Go northward or southward, go eastward of westward,
how happy are they who to Jesus belong:
So let the world know, as we join in Christingle,
that Jesus, the Peace of the world, is our song.
4 When homeward we go, we must take Jesus with us,
for happy are they who to Jesus belong:
So let the world know, as we join in Christingle,
that Jesus, the Savior of all, is our song. Topics: Christmas; Christian year--Christmas Scripture: Matthew 28:16-20 Languages: English Tune Title: ARLES
