1031. Shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing

1 Shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing;
Jerusalem triumphs, Messiah is King!
Zion, 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.

Chorus:
Shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing,
Jerusalem triumphs, Messiah is King!
Messiah is King, Messiah is King!

2 Shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing:
Jerusalem triumphs, Messiah is King!
Tell how he cometh; form nation to nation
The heart-cheering news let the earth echo round:
How free to the faithful he offers salvation,
How his people with joy everlasting are crowned.
[Chorus]

3 Shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing;
Jerusalem triumphs, Messiah is King!
Mortals, your homage be gratefully bringing,
And sweet let the gladsome hosanna arise;
Ye angels the full hallelujah be singing;
One chorus resound through the earth and the skies.
[Chorus]
