8.8.8.8.Ref. 1 Be glad in the Lord and rejoice, All ye that are upright in heart; And ye that have made Him your choice, Bid sadness and sorrow depart. Rejoice! Rejoice! Be glad in the Lord and rejoice! 2 Be joyful, for He is the Lord, On earth and in heaven supreme; He fashions and rules by His word; The “Mighty” and “Strong” to redeem. 3 What though in the conflict for right Your enemies almost prevail! God’s armies, just hid from your sight, Are more than the foes which assail. 4 Though darkness surround you by day, Your sky by the night be o’ercast, Let nothing your spirit dismay, But trust till the danger is past. 5 Be glad in the Lord and rejoice, His praises proclaiming in song; With harp, and with organ, and voice, The loud hallelujahs prolong!
