Rejoice and Be Glad

Rejoice and be glad! The Redeemer has come!

Go look on His cradle, His cross, and His tomb.

Sound His praises, tell the story, Of Him Who was slain;
Sound His praises, tell with gladness, He liveth again.

Rejoice and be glad! It is sunshine at last!
The clouds have departed, The shadows are past.

Rejoice and be glad! For the blood hath been shed;
Redemption is finished, The price has been paid.

Rejoice and be glad! Now the pardon is free!
The Just for the unjust Has died on the tree.

Horatius Bonar
