Send Out the Tidings

lyricist: Ida Reed, 1900
Composer: Lincoln Hall

Send out the tid­ings

let the an­them ring

Tell to all na­tions that the Lord is king;

Empty the gloomy pri­son

past is night

Now He is ris­en in­to light.

Refrain (Girls)

Then let the tid­ings ring from to shore to shore

Jesus is ris’n for aye.

Boys

O sing the song of joy

Death can no long­er de­stroy

All

Its pow­er has passed away.

Send out the tid­ings

let the an­them ring

Tell to all na­tions that the Lord is king;

Jesus is ris­en

let the tid­ings swell

He con­quered the grave and van­quished hell.

Send out the tid­ings from the si­lent grave

Jesus is ris­en sin­ful men to save

For sin He suf­fered

died and rose again

Strong and tri­umph­ant sing the strain.

Send out the tid­ings all the na­tions o’er

Let all the peo­ple crown Him ev­er­more;

Come now and hail the Vic­tor who was slain

Lo! He is ris­en

crowned to reign.
