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.
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.
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.
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.
At His feet, on old
Olivet’s hill, they say,
Cloud chariots halted,
took Christ away;
Then the angels came
and to wond’ring disciples said,
“He’ll come, and earth
and sea shall yield up their dead.”
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.
