Shout the Glad Tidings


	Shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing, 
	Jerusalem triumphs, Messiah is King. 

1. 	Zion, the marvelous story be telling, 
	The Son of the Highest, how lowely His birth; 
	The brightest arch angel in glory excelling, 
	He stoops to redeem thee, 
	He reigns upon earth. 
	
2.	Tell how He cometh; from nation to nation 
	The heart-cheering news let the earth ech-o 'round; 
	How free to the faithful He offers salvation, 
	How His people with joy everlasting are crowned. 
	
3.	Mortals, your homage be gratefully bringing, 
	And sweet let the gladsome hosanna arise; 
	Ye angels, the full Alleluia be singing; 
	One chorus resound thro' the earth and the skies.
