Author: E. E. Hewitt Hymnal: Crowning Day No. 4 #146 (1900) First Line: In the midst of care and tribulation Refrain First Line: Happy message, blessed message Lyrics: 1 In the midst of care and tribulation,
Comes a song that’s sweeter than the Spring;
Who will spread the tidings of salvation?
Who will bear a message from the King?
Refrain:
Happy message, blessed message!
Joy to the heart it will bring;
Happy message, blessed message,
Who will bear a message from King?
2 Who will be a herald of the Saviour,
Going where His Spirit leads the way?
Who will witness of His grace and favor?
Who will speak a word of Him today? [Refrain]
3 Who will tell to those who stray in sadness,
Of the happy rest at Jesus’ feet?
Who will lead them to the fount of gladness,
And the story of the cross repeat? [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [In the midst of care and tribulation]
A Message from the King
