Verse 1
Dear Christians, one and all, rejoice, with exultation springing,
And, with united heart and voice and holy rapture singing,
Proclaim the wonders God hath done,
How His right arm the vict’ry won;
Most dearly it hath cost Him.
Verse 2
He said to His beloved Son: “Tis time to have compassion.
Then go, bright Jewel of My crown, and bring to man salvation;
From sin and sorrow set him free,
Slay bitter death from him that he
May live with Thee forever.”
Verse 3
To man Christ said: “Hold fast to me, I am thy Rock and castle;
Thy Ransom I Myself will be, for thee I strive and wrestle;
For I am with thee, I am thine,
And evermore thou shalt be Mine;
The foe shall not divide us.”
Thy Ransom I Myself will be, for thee I strive and wrestle;
For I am with thee, I am thine,
And evermore thou shalt be Mine;
The foe shall not divide us.”
