Rejoice with Me (Atchinson)

Rejoice with me

for now I’m free

I joy in a new plea­sure;

From God above

the gift of love

Is mine in full­est mea­sure.

Rejoice

re­joice

Christ is my choice

His cross alone my glo­ry;

While life shall last

when death is past

I’ll sing the joy­ful sto­ry.

Once vile with sin

Christ makes me clean

Gone is all con­dem­na­tion

For I be­lieve and now re­ceive

A full and free sal­va­tion.

In Christ I live

and He doth give

Great joy where once was sad­ness;

And in this way

from day to day

My life is filled with glad­ness.

To all pro­claim His won­drous name

Repeat the old

old sto­ry;

Till work is done and Heav­en won

Then praise Him more in glo­ry.
