Sing Aloud with Gladness

Oh! I love the Gos­pel song

How it sweet­ly rolls along

Let the earth the strains pro­long

Sing aloud with glad­ness:

Blessèd news to sin­ners bring­ing

While the an­gel choirs are sing­ing

And the bells of Heav’n are ring­ing

Sing aloud with glad­ness.

Down the cen­tu­ries it came

Glory

glo­ry to His name

Free sal­va­tion to pro­claim

Sing aloud with glad­ness:

And this me­lo­dy so hoa­ry

Is hu­man­ity’s rich glo­ry

And eter­nity’s sweet sto­ry

Sing aloud with glad­ness.

Haste

all lands

for Christ make room

Earth shall yield her sin and gloom

All her des­ert plac­es bloom

Sing aloud with glad­ness:

And this won­der­ful sal­va­tion

Shall be sung by ev­ery na­tion

While He rules the vast cre­ation

Sing aloud with glad­ness.
