Now dawns the sun of righteousness And the darkness will never his brightness dim True light that lights the hearts of men Only Son of the Father Jesus Christ
Tell out, tell out the news On every street proclaim A child is born, a Son is given And Jesus is his name Tell out, tell out the news Our Saviour Christ has come In every tribe and nation Let songs of praise be sung Let songs of praise be sung!
Laughter and joy he will increase All our burdens be lifted Oppression cease The blood-stained battle-dress be burned And the art of our warfare Never more be learned
So let us go, his witnesses Spreading news of his kingdom Of righteousness Till the whole world has heard the song Till the harvest is gathered Then the end shall come
