NOW DAWNS THE SUN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
|
And the darkness will never his brightness dim
|
True light that lights the hearts of men
|
Only Son of the Father Jesus Christ
|
|
Tell out, tell out the news
|
On every street proclaim
|
A child is born, a Son is given
|
And Jesus is his name
|
Tell out, tell out the news
|
Our Saviour Christ has come
|
In every tribe and nation
|
Let songs of praise be sung
|
Let songs of praise be sung!
|
|
Laughter and joy he will increase
|
All our burdens be lifted
|
Oppression cease
|
The blood-stained battle-dress be burned
|
And the art of our warfare
|
Never more be learned
|
|
So let us go, his witnesses
|
Spreading news of his kingdom
|
Of righteousness
|
Till the whole world has heard the song
|
Till the harvest is gathered
|
Then the end shall come
|
|
|
