Hymn Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk - Christian Hymn Lyrics.  

Come, sing with holy gladness 
Come, sing with holy gladness, high alleluias sing, uplift your loud hosannas to Jesus, Lord and King; sing, boys in joyful chorus your hymn of praise today, and sing, ye gentle maidens, your sweet responsive lay. 
'Tis good for boys and maidens sweet hymns to Christ to sing, 'tis meet that children's voices should praise the children's King: for Jesus is salvation, and glory, grace and rest; to babe and boy and maiden the one Redeemer blest. 
O boys, be strong in Jesus, to toil for him is gain, and Jesus wrought with Joseph with chisel, saw and plane; O maidens, live for Jesus, who was a maiden's Son; be patient, pure and gentle, and perfect grace begun. 
Soon in the golden city the boys and girls shall play, and through the dazzling mansions rejoice in endless day; O Christ, prepare thy children with that triumphant throng to pass the burnished portals, and sing the eternal song.
