Christians lift your voice in praises,

1.

Christians lift your voice in praises,

On this memorable day

Sing in gladness, let your voices,

Sing all over vale and dale

Laud Hosannas, laud Hosannas,

Sea and streams all join the strain.

2.

Come ye people, raise the anthem,

On the earth, and heav’n above

All creatures above and beneath

Sing the praise of Jesus’ Name

Praise Him praise Him

Praise to our king born this day.

3.

Sing His praises, all Africans,

Though your skin be dark or light

Sing Hosannas, laud Hosannas

Right round all our continent,

Let every king, let every king

Prostrate fall to Christ our King.

4.

Sing Hosannas, laud Hosanna,

Sing aloud and shout for joy;

The stronghold of Satan vanquish’d,

For the woman’s Seed appears

Allelujah, Allelujah,

Great Redeemer, King of kings.

5.

Seraphs lift on high your voices,

With the Cherubs round the thrones;

Angels and the saints in Heaven

Join with them ye heav’nly hosts

Rejoice with us, rejoice with us,

Year of jubilee is come.

6.

Laud and honour to the Father

Laud and honour to the Son

Laud and honour to the Spirit

Three-in-One and One-in-Three

Hear us and accept our praises

Thine the glory thine alone.
