[Break forth, ye heavens, in singing]

“Break forth into singing.........for the Lord hath redeemed Jacob, and glorified Himself in Israel.”—Isaiah xliv. 23.

Break forth, ye heavens, in singing,
O floods, lift up your voice;
Christ comes salvation bringing,
Rejoice, O men, rejoice!
Tell out, tell out the story,
Proclaim the Saviour's birth,
Until the Saviour's glory
Shall cover all the earth.
