Representative Text

1 Angels are singing redemption's sweet song,
Wonderful theme, glorious theme!
Shout the glad message and join in the throng,
Singing redemption's song!

Refrain:
Sing the sweet story-redemption's sweet song;
(Sing it again, sing the sweet song,
sing the sweet story, redemption's sweet song;)
Over and over the chorus prolong;
(Sing it again, sing it again,
Over and over the chorus prolong;)
Shout the glad message and join with the throng
(Shout it again, sing the sweet song,
Shout the glad message and join with the throng,)
Ever we'll sing praise to the King,
Singing redemption's song. (wonderful song.)

2 Over and over the melodies ring,
Wonderful theme, glorious theme!
Heaven resounds with the tribute they bring,
Singing redemption's song! [Refrain]

3 Joy beyond measure awaits us up there,
Wonderful theme, glorious theme!
Soon we shall join with the angels so fair,
Singing redemption's song! [Refrain]
