Shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing;
Jerusalem triumphs, Messiah is King!
1 Sion, the marvelous story be telling,
The Son of the Highest, how lowly His birth!
The brightest archangel in glory excelling,
He stoops to redeem thee, He reigns upon earth. [Refrain]
2 Tell how He cometh; from nation to nation
The heart cheering news let the earth echo round;
How free to the faithful He offers salvation—
His people with joy everlasting are crown’d. [Refrain]
3 Mortals, your homage be gratefully bringing,
And sweet let the gladsome hosannas arise;
Ye angels, the full alleluias be singing;
One chorus resound thro’ the earth and the skies. [Refrain]
Shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing;
Jerusalem triumphs, Messiah is King!
