1 Sing out! Sing out!
And with a joyful heart,
O do not be dismayed;
The Lord of hosts is on your side,
How can you feel afraid?

Chorus:
Sing out! Sing out a song of praise!
Let love inspire your voice!
Sing out! Sing out!
The Lord doth reign!
Rejoice! Rejoice! Rejoice!

2 Sing out! Sing out!
And tho' the storm-clouds low'r,
Hope's rainbow soon will shine;
O look above, with eyes of faith,
Where gleams a light divine. [Chorus]

3 Sing out! Sing out!
O let "thy will be done!"
In sweetest music ring;
In life, in death, there is vict'ry
Thro' Christ, the mighty King. [Chorus]

Telegraph, however, it was not until she was a widow with eight children to support that she started writing in earnest. She wrote articles, librettos, nature stories and other works, as well as hymns.
