The Cambridge Singers - This Is the Day lyrics
Artist: The Cambridge Singers
album: This is the Day: Music on Royal Occasions
This is the day
The day which the Lord hath made
We will rejoice and be glad in it.
This is the day
The day which the Lord hath made
We will rejoice and be glad in it.
This is the day.
O praise the Lord of heav'n: praise him in the height.
Praise him, all ye angels of his: praise him, all his host.
Praise him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars and light.
Let them praise the Name of the Lord.
For he shall give his angels charge over thee: to keep thee in all thy ways.
To keep thee in all thy ways.
To keep thee in all thy ways.
The Lord himself is thy keeper
The Lord is thy defence upon thy right hand;
So that the sun shall not burn thee by day
Neither the moon by night.
The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil:
Yea, it is even he that shall keep thy soul.
The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in:
From this time forth
From this time forth
From this time forth for evermore.
He shall defend thee
He shall defend thee
He shall defend thee under his wings.
He shall defend thee
He shall defend thee
He shall defend thee under his wings.
Be strong, and he shall comfort thine heart,
Shall comfort thine heart,
And put thou thy trust
Thy trust in the Lord.
Put thou thy trust in the Lord
Thy trust in the Lord.
The day which the Lord hath made
We will rejoice and be glad in it.
This is the day
The day which the Lord hath made
We will rejoice and be glad in it.
This is the day.
O praise the Lord of heav'n: praise him in the height.
Praise him, all ye angels of his: praise him, all his host.
Praise him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars and light.
Let them praise the Name of the Lord.
For he shall give his angels charge over thee: to keep thee in all thy ways.
To keep thee in all thy ways.
To keep thee in all thy ways.
The Lord himself is thy keeper
The Lord is thy defence upon thy right hand;
So that the sun shall not burn thee by day
Neither the moon by night.
The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil:
Yea, it is even he that shall keep thy soul.
The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in:
From this time forth
From this time forth
From this time forth for evermore.
He shall defend thee
He shall defend thee
He shall defend thee under his wings.
He shall defend thee
He shall defend thee
He shall defend thee under his wings.
Be strong, and he shall comfort thine heart,
Shall comfort thine heart,
And put thou thy trust
Thy trust in the Lord.
Put thou thy trust in the Lord
Thy trust in the Lord.
