Sing Alleluia!

Author: Charles Austin Miles Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Faces bright with delight Refrain First Line: Sing "Alleluia" Lyrics: 1 Faces bright with delight On this happy morn, Tell to all, great and small, That the Savior King was born; On this day, far away, In an eastern clime, Angel voices sweetly sang In harmony sublime. Refrain: Sing "Alleluia," Sing "Alleluia," Glory be to God on high And peace on earth; Sing "Alleluia," Sing "Alleluia," In honor of the Savior’s birth. 2 Hanging high in the sky Shone the emblem fair, And its ray, bright as day, Told of Jesus lying there; He whose life, free from strife, Filled with love divine, Brighter than the brightest star Eternally shall shine. [Refrain] 3 Let us sing of the King Who in wondrous love, Left His own glorious throne In the Father’s home above; And that we might be free From the power of sin, Gave His life a sacrifice Our souls for Heav’n to win. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Faces bright with delight] Text Sources: The Service of Praise (Philadelphia: Hall-Mack Company, 1900)

C. Austin Miles

1868 - 1946 Person Name: Charles Austin Miles Author of "Sing Alleluia!" in The Cyber Hymnal Charles Austin Miles USA 1868-1946. Born at Lakehurst, NJ, he attended the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy and the University of PA. He became a pharmacist. He married Bertha H Haagen, and they had two sons: Charles and Russell. In 1892 he abandoned his pharmacy career and began writing gospel songs. At first he furnished compositions to the Hall-Mack Publishing Company, but soon became editor and manager, where he worked for 37 years. He felt he was serving God better in the gospel song writing business, than as a pharmacist. He published the following song books: “New songs of the gospel” (1900), “The service of praise” (1900), “The voice of praise” (1904), “The tribute of song” (1904), “New songs of the gospel #2” (1905), “Songs of service” (1910), “Ideal Sunday school hymns” (1912). He wrote and/or composed 400+ hymns. He died in Philadelphia, PA. John Perry
