The birth of freedom

Hymnal: The Morning Stars Sang Together #82 (1897) First Line: We come with joy and gladness Lyrics: 1 We come with joy and gladness, To breathe our songs of praise, Nor let one note of sadness, be mingled with our lays. For 'tis a hallowed story, This theme of freedom's birth; Our fathers' deeds of glory Are echoed round the earth. 2 The sound is waxing stronger, And thrones and nations hear-- Proud man shall rule no longer, For God, the Lord, is near; And he will crush oppression, And raise the humble mind, And give the earth's possession Among the good and kind. 3 And then shall sink the mountains, Where pride and power are crowned, And peace, like gentle fountains, Shall shed in pureness round. O God! we would adore Thee, And in thy shadow rest; Our fathers bowed before Thee, And trusted, and were blest. Tune Title: [We come with joy and gladness]
