Lyrics from A Collection of Sacred Hymns, for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, 1841

Hymn 82
C.M.
1. Rejoice! ye Saints of Latter Days,
Lift up your heads and sing;
With one accord unite to praise,
Your Everlasting King.

2. No more in darkness need you walk,
Or tread in error's night,
For the Most High again has spoke
The darkness into light.

3. The Holy Spirit is sent down,
Like as in days of old,
To bring to mind things that are past,
And things to come unfold.

4. O may it rest upon us now,
While we're assembled here
Bring consolation to our souls
Our drooping spirits cheer.

5. O may it ever guide our feet,
In ways of righteousness,
That we may be accounted meet;
To dwell in blessedness.

6. And may the glorious light of truth,
Shine through the world below,
And heavenly blessings, peace and love
On all mankind bestow.
