Chorus:
Shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing;
Jerusalem triumphs, Messiah is King!
1 Sion, the marvellous story be telling,
The Son of the Highest, how lowly His birth!
The brightest archangel in glory excelling,
He stoops to redeem thee, He reigns upon earth: [Chorus]
2 Tell how He cometh; from nation to nation
The heart-cheering news let the earth echo round;
How free to the faithful He offers salvation,
How His people with joy everlasting are crown'd: [Chorus]
3 Mortals, your homage be gratefully bringing,
And sweet let the gladsome hosanna arise:
Ye angels, the full hallelujah be singing;
One chorus resound through the earth and the skies: [Chorus]
