My Savior has done all things well.
Shout the glo­ri­ous tid­ings,
Glory to God! I’m out of hell.
Of hap­py Christ­mas­tide.
Merry Christ­mas bells,
Merry Christ­mas bells,
And joined the hosts ab­ove,
Oh, to have joined that sing­ing,
The world to­day re­joic­es,
May com­ing hosts in sweet ac­cord,
Break forth in tune­ful me­lo­dy,
Shout the name of Him who saves us,
Above, be­neath us, and around,
Sweetly they sound o’er vale and glen;
start
Where, earth songs end­ed,
Which our chimes are tell­ing,
What though your migh­ty guilt be­yond
As to and fro their great tongues swing,
Christ is ris­en! Christ is ris­en!

Swell

This note shall swell, this note shall swell,
Lived a life of po­ver­ty
This note shall swell, This note shall swell,
They ring! They ring! They ring!
Ringing sweet and clear;
Ringing sweet and clear;
The song of Je­sus’ love;
Blessèd is He that com­eth!
In lofty strains re­peat the song
The an­them swell—the praise pro­long.
And swell the migh­ty song.
Forward, sol­diers, bold and fear­less,
O Sav­ior, with pro­tect­ing care,
With Peace on earth, good will to men!
The praise of Je­sus’ name;
Safe, all the saints among,
Ringing, ring­ing, new joy bring­ing,
And has its cursed foun­da­tions laid
The gen­tle breez­es catch the tones,
For our gain He suf­fered loss
