Author: George Orlia Webster Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3675 First Line: Day when Heav'n and earth unite in songs of gladness Refrain First Line: Let us sing for joy, sing for joy Lyrics: 1 Day when Heav'n and earth unite in songs of gladness,
Triumph telling, o'er the tomb;
Day when mourning ones can banish all their sadness,
Songs upswelling, where was gloom.
Refrain:
Let us sing for joy, sing for joy,
On this happy day;
Christ is risen from the dead,
He is risen as He said;
Let us sing for joy, sing for joy,
And His voice obey,
Who the hosts of light to victory has led.
2 Day when from the tomb the Christ arose in glory,
As was breaking morning light,
Day when angels tell to men the wondrous story,
Hope awaking by His might. [Refrain]
3 Day when earth may banish all its cares and sadness,
And upraising songs of joy,
Send abroad to all the world the Easter gladness,
Ever praising—best employ. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Day when Heav'n and earth unite]
Let Us Sing for Joy
