315 Come Ye Faithful, Raise The Strain


Come, Ye Faithful, Raise the Strain

G                                                     D     
Come, ye faithful, raise the strain of triumphant gladness;
                                                     
God hath brought forth Israel into joy from sadness;
                      G                                 D     
loosed from Pharoah's bitter yoke Jacob's sons and daughters,
G                                                  D G     
led them with unmoistened foot through the Red Sea Waters.

Words: John of Damascus; trans. by John Mason Neal, 1859 (Ex. 15)
