Lift Your Glad Voices

Author: Reverend Henry Ware, Jr. Hymnal: Children's Hymnal #188 (1957) Hymnal Title: Children's Hymnal First Line: Lift your glad voices in triumph on high Lyrics: 1 Lift your glad voices in triumph on high, For Jesus hat risen, and man cannot die. Vain were the terrors that gathered around him, And short the dominion of death and the grave; He burst from the fetters of darkness that bound him, Resplendent in glory, to live and to save. Loud was the chorus of angels on high, "The Savior hath risen, and man shall not die." 2 Glory to God in full anthems of joy! The being he gave us, death cannot destroy. Sad were the life we must part with tomorrow If tears were our birthright and death were our end; But Jesus hath cheered the dark valley of sorrow; We'll rise from the dead and immortal ascend. Lift then your voices in triumph on high, For Jesus hath risen, and man shall not die.

Person Name: Unknown Hymnal Title: The Woman's Hymnal Composer of "TRUMPET" in The Woman's Hymnal In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
