Author: Flora Kirkland Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1255 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: The day of redemption hath come with a song Refrain First Line: Hail! Hail! day of redemption! Lyrics: 1. The day of redemption hath come with a song— The song of redemption from sin so strong. The angels first chanted it over a hill; As Christmas returneth it echoes still. Refrain Hail! Hail! day of redemption! Hark the angel chorus rings! Hail! Hail! day of redemption! Bow before the King of kings! 2. Redemption most wonderful! Gift from the sky, Redeemer most gentle, so low to lie! O herald so glorious sent from above, To speak to the shepherds of God’s great love. [Refrain] 3. O marvel of tenderness! Marvel of light! The King from the glory, so wondrous bright! Is resting all quietly, pillowed on hay, And gone is earth’s darkness! Behold! ’tis day! [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [The day of redemption hath come with a song]
