Calvary Songs ‎#24a

24a. Rejoice and Be Glad

1 Rejoice and be glad! The Redeemer has come!
Go look on his cradle, his cross, and his tomb.

Refrain:
Sound his praises, tell the story,
Of him who was slain;
Sound his praises, tell with gladness,
He liveth again.

2 Rejoice and be glad! It is sunshine at last!
The clouds have departed, the shadows are past. [Refrain]

3 Rejoice and be glad! For the blood hath been shed;
Redemption is finished, the price hath been paid. [Refrain]

4 Rejoice and be glad! Now the pardon is free!
The just for the unjust has died on the tree. [Refrain]

5 Rejoice and be glad! For the Lamb that was slain,
O'er death is triumphant and liveth again. [Refrain]

6 Rejoice and be glad! For our King is on high,
He pleadeth for us on his throne in the sky. [Refrain

7 Rejoice and be glad! For he cometh again!
He cometh in glory, the Lamb that was slain. [Refrain]
