Lyrics

Praise to the Lord of Hosts, sing God's salvation, Bless his name, and shout God's praise, in this holy place. Rejoice, O heavens, and be joyful on earth, rejoice in the house of the Lord, for he comes to us. Alleluia.  Rejoice, O angels; rejoice, all you nations, sing songs of praise to the Lord for he comes to us. Alleluia.
