Tell the Joyful News

Tell the joy­ful news

Christ the Lord is born

Peace and joy He brings on this Christ­mas morn;

Let the bells ring out and their mu­sic tell

Jesus comes to reign

King Im­ma­nu­el.

In the high­est peace

good will to men;

Jesus cometh

tell the news again;

While the an­gels sing of the new­born King

Spread the joy­ful news ov­er all the land.

Tell the joy­ful news

night has passed away

And the dawn­ing breaks of a bright­er day;

For the Gos­pel rays from the man­ger shine

Over all the world

shed­ding light di­vine.

Tell the joy­ful news ov­er all the earth:

Let the na­tions hear of a Sav­ior’s birth

’Till each grate­ful heart shall the strain re­peat

And their trib­utes bring to the Mas­ter’s feet.
