1. Come, friends, sing, of the faith that’s so dear to me,
Revealed thro’ God’s Son, in Galilee;
He brought peace on earth and good will to the sons of men,
Go tell it to the world, her king reigns again.
Refrain
I am so happy in Jesus,
Captivity’s captor is He;
Angels rejoice when a soul’s saved,
Some day we like Him shall be;
Sorrow and joy have the same Lord,
Valley of shadows shall sing;
Death has its life, its door opens in Heaven eternally,
Christ is king.
2. Crucified, thus He suffered and bled for me,
Death and the grave won sin’s victory;
Then the sky grew dark and the temple veil rent in twain,
Rocks rent, and angels came, for He lived again. [Refrain]
3. At His feet, on old Olivet’s hill, they say,
Cloud chariots halted, took Christ away;
Then the angels came and to wondering disciples said,
He’ll come, and earth and sea shall yield up their dead. [Refrain]
