Tell it to every kindred and nation,
Tell
it far and near;
Earth's
darkest night will fade with the dawning,
Jesus
will soon appear.
Refrain
2
Nations
again in strife and commotion,
Warnings
by the way;
Signs
in the heavens, unerring omens,
Herald
the glorious day.
3
Children
of God look up with rejoicing;
Shout
and sing His praise;
Blessed
are they who, waiting and watching,
Look
for the dawning rays.
