Lyrics & English Translation Rejoice, be glad, O you blessed souls, Rejoice, be glad, Singing sweet songs; In response to your singing Let the heavens sing forth with me. The friendly day shines forth, both clouds and storms have fled now; for the righteous there has arisen an unexpected calm. Dark night reigned everywhere [before]; you who feared till now, and joyful for this lucky dawn give garlands and lilies with full right hand. You, o crown of virgins, grant us peace, console our feelings, from which our hearts sigh. Alleluja A link to this wonderful artists personal website: http://www.barbarahendricks.com/ Please Enjoy!
