421. Tell it Out!

1 Tell it out among the heathen that the Lord is King!
Tell it out! Tell it out!
Tell it out among the nations, bid them shout and sing!
Tell it out! Tell it out!
Tell it out with adoration that He shall increase,
That the mighty King of glory is the King of Peace;
Tell it out with jubilation, tho’ the waves may roar,
That He sitteth on the water-floods, our King for evermore!;

Chorus:
Tell it out among the heathen that the Lord is King!
Tell it out! Tell it out!
Tell it out among the nations, bid them shout and sing!
Tell it out! Tell it out!

2 Tell it out among the heathens that the Saviour reigns!
Tell it out! Tell it out!
Tell it out among the nations, bid them break their chains!
Tell it out! Tell it out!
Tell it out among the weeping ones that Jesus lives,
Tell it out among the weary ones what rest He gives;
Tell it out among the sinners that He came to save;
Tell it out among the dying that He triumphed o’er the grave. [Chorus]

3 Tell it out among the heathens, Jesus reigns above!
Tell it out! Tell it out!
Tell it out among the nations that His reign is love!
Tell it out! Tell it out!
Tell it out among the highways and the lanes at home,
Let it ring across the mountains and the ocean’s foam!
Like the sound of many waters let our glad shout be,
Till it echo and reecho from the islands of the sea! [Chorus]
