  LYRICS:
  Rejoice, rejoice, your light has come, rejoice!
  
  Come every soul descending in dismay
  Who dreams to overcome this darkening day,
  Dispel the myths of mystery, and from these heavy chains you shall be free, Rejoice!
  
  Rejoice, the Light is here to help you find
  Some brightening of your shadow weary mind;
  To clear the tears of loss and pain,
  Restore you hope for life again,
  
  Rejoice, rejoice, your healing has begun,
  So dance for joy, the victory is won!
  
  O Lift your head and do not be afraid,
  Receive the gift as ransom freely paid.
  Release the ones you hold in misery
  And love will conquer every enemy.
  
  Rejoice, rejoice, the Hope of Nations, call.
  The Word is Love, salvation for us all!
  
  Rejoice, rejoice, and join the angels' song,
  O shout for joy, all sorrow shall be gone!
  Rejoice! Rejoice!
  
  REJOICE!
