Tell the Blessèd Tidings

Tell the bless­èd tid­ings

Children of the King

With your glad ho­san­nas

Make the morn­ing ring:

Songs of His sal­va­tion

Nevermore should cease;

Crown Him with your prais­es

Hail Him Prince of Peace!

Round His throne of tri­umph

Happy hosts at­tend

His the power and glo­ry

Kingdom with­out end.

Tell the bless­èd tid­ings

Ye whose ears have heard;

Tell it to the cap­tives

Waiting for His Word:

Tell the hun­gry na­tions

Longing to be fed

Of the liv­ing wa­ter

And the heav’n­ly bread.

Mighty to de­liv­er

Tender guide and friend

His the pow­er and glo­ry

Kingdom with­out end.

Bear the bless­èd tid­ings

Over land and sea;

Lo

the morn­ing break­eth

And the sha­dows flee!

Whosoever hear­eth

Speed the news along

Join with men and an­gels

In sal­va­tion’s song.

Christ the world’s Re­deem­er

Savior

guide and friend!

Thine the pow­er and glo­ry

Kingdom with­out end!
