1 Angels are singing redemption's sweet song,
Wonderful theme, glorious theme!
Shout the glad message and join in the throng,
Singing redemption's song!
Refrain:
Sing the sweet story-redemption's sweet song;
Over and over the chorus prolong;
Shout the glad message and join with the throng
Ever we'll sing praise to the King,
Singing redemption's song.
2 Over and over the melodies ring,
Wonderful theme, glorious theme!
Heaven resounds with the tribute they bring,
Singing redemption's song! [Refrain]
3 Joy beyond measure awaits us up there,
Wonderful theme, glorious theme!
Soon we shall join with the angels so fair,
Singing redemption's song! [Refrain]
