Lyrics

Easter:
Rejoice, rejoice, all people on earth rejoice.
The Lord has risen up, has risen from the dead.
All praise and glory to the Saviour, now and evermore, for now and evermore.
He is the man from Gallilee who died for us on Calvary,
and rose again triumpantly to set us free.
Rejoice, rejoice, all people on earth rejoice.
The Lord has risen up, has risen from the dead.
All people on earth rejoice!
The trumpet and the horn resound His glory to proclaim,
the cymbal and the tambourine give honor to His name.
The fife and drum they loudly play to praise and glorify,
They've come to celebrate the news "The Lord God reigns on high!"
Rejoice, rejoice, all people on earth rejoice.
The Lord has risen up, has risen from the dead.
All praise and glory to the Saviour,
He will reign and live victorious now and evermore. Rejoice!

Christmas:
Rejoice, rejoice, all people on earth rejoice.
A Holy babe is born, is born in Bethlehem.
All praise and glory to the Saviour, now and evermore, for now and evermore.
They call his name Emmanuel for He has come with news to tell,
He will with us forever dwell and set us free.
Rejoice, rejoice, all people on earth rejoice.
A Holy babe is born, is born in Bethlehem.
All people on earth rejoice!
The trumpet and the horn resound His glory to proclaim,
the cymbal and the tambourine give honor to His name.
The fife and drum they loudly play to Him this Holy Day.
They've come to celebrate the news that Jesus Christ is born.
Rejoice, rejoice, all people on earth rejoice.
A Holy babe is born, is born in Bethlehem.
All praise and glory to the Saviour,
He will reign and live victorious now and evermore. Rejoice!

General:
Rejoice, rejoice, all people on earth rejoice.
Give praise unto the Lord, unto his Holy name.
Give praise unto the Lord and sing unto his Holy name, unto his Holy name.
Oh come before the mighty King, lift up your voice to Him and sing,
and let your praise unto Him ring for evermore.
Rejoice, rejoice, all people on earth rejoice.
Give praise unto the Lord, unto his Holy name.
All people on earth rejoice!
Oh let the trumpet now resound His glory to proclaim,
then follow with the tambourine in honor of His name.
Now add the fife and drum to loudly play glorify,
for they have all come here to join in praising God on high!
Rejoice, rejoice, all people on earth rejoice.
Give praise unto the Lord, unto his Holy name.
Give praise unto the Lord and sing unto his Holy name,
For He is God for evermore. Rejoice!
