Come, friends, sing,
Of the faith that’s so dear to me,
Revealed thro’ God’s Son, in Ga­li­lee;
He brought peace on earth
And good will to the sons of men,
Go tell it to the world,
Her king reigns again.

Refrain

I am so hap­py in Je­sus,
Captivity’s cap­tor is He;
Angels re­joice when a soul’s saved,
Some day we like Him shall be;
Sorrow and joy have the same Lord,
Valley of sha­dows shall sing;
Death has its life,
Its door op­ens in Hea­ven eter­nal­ly,
Christ is king.

Crucified, thus He suf­fered and bled for me,
Death and the grave won sin’s vic­to­ry;
Then the sky grew dark,
And the tem­ple veil rent in twain,
Rocks rent, and an­gels came,
For He lived again.

Refrain

At His feet, on old Ol­iv­et’s hill, they say,
Cloud cha­ri­ots halt­ed, took Christ away;
Then the an­gels came
And to won­der­ing dis­ci­ples said,
He’ll come, and earth and sea
Shall yield up their dead.
