Sing for Joy (Hunter)

Composer: Walter Rush

Be glad

ye right­eous

sing for joy

Ye child­ren of the King;

Find in His praise your right em­ploy

Let glad ho­san­nas ring.

Extol His migh­ty works and ways

Show forth His ten­der love

’Tis He who crown­eth all your days

With bless­ings from ab­ove.

’Twas He who formed the won­drous earth

He spake

and it was done;

His hand hath led us from our birth

And will till vic’try’s won.

The heav­ens with His glo­ry shine

Each spark­ling star He names

The fir­ma­ment His work di­vine

With ra­di­ant smile pro­claims.

Above all gods

the Lord of lords

He dwells in ma­jes­ty

His praise the high­est joy af­fords

To Him all praise shall be.

He yet shall bring the bless­èd time;

Haste

Lord

the wel­come day

When ev­ery na­tion

ev­ery clime

Shall own His right­eous sway.
