R. You give us life, o Lord,
You set us free, o Lord,
You give salvation
Victory for ever.
You give us life, o Lord,
You set us free, o Lord,
Our hearts exult in you,
Ever loving God.
1. Take off your cloak of sadness now,
God’s own joy is in your heart.
Put on the glory of the Lord,
God’s renewing you.
2. Play for the Lord upon the harp,
Let the instruments ring out.
God wants to show your splendour now,
Everywhere on earth.
3. Our Lord and God will be your guide,
His light leading you in joy.
You need not fear, o little one,
God will show the way.
4. My soul rejoices in my God
And my spirit sings his praise.
Let all the universe proclaim :
May your kingdom come.
