Good news! good news
of a soul redeemed,
A penitent forgiven!
Good news! good news
that another friend
Is on the way to Heaven!
Rejoice! rejoice! there’s joy today
In the land beyond the river;
Another gem for His diadem,
A star to shine forever.
Good news! good news
that another heart
Has learned redemption’s story;
Good news! good news
that another voice
Will sing His praise in glory.
Rejoice! rejoice! there’s joy today
In the land beyond the river;
Another gem for His diadem,
A star to shine forever.
Good news! good news
that another life
Will show the power of Jesus,
Will prove the might
of the saving grace
Which daily, hourly frees us.
Rejoice! rejoice! there’s joy today
In the land beyond the river;
Another gem for His diadem,
A star to shine forever.
Good news! good news
that another hand
Will precious seed be sowing,
Another guide to lead straying feet
Where living streams are flowing.
Rejoice! rejoice! there’s joy today
In the land beyond the river;
Another gem for His diadem,
A star to shine forever.
