Thomas Clark - Arise and hail the happy day - текст песни (слова)

Arise and hail the happy day,
 Cast all low cares of life away,
 And thought of meaner things:
 This day to cure our deadly woes
 The sun of righteousness arose,
 With healing in his wings. 
 
 If angels on that happy morn
 The Saviour of the world was born,
 Pour'd forth their joyful song;
 Much more should we of human race
 Adore the wonders of his grace,
 To whom that grace belongs. 
 
 O then let heav'n and earth rejoice,
 Let ev'ry creature join his voice
 To hymn the happy day,
 When Satan's empire vanquish'd fell
 And all the pow'rs of death and hell
 Confess'd his sov'reign sway.
