Day of Jubilee
Dublin Core
Title
Day of Jubilee
Description
Roll on thou joyful day,
When tyranny's proud sway
And freedom's flag unfurled,
Shall wave throughout the world,
Trump of glad jubilee;
Echo o'er land and sea,
And every tribe reply,
Glory to God on high,
When tyranny's proud sway
Stern as the grave,
Shall to the grave be hurled,And freedom's flag unfurled,
Shall wave throughout the world,
O'er every slave.
Trump of glad jubilee;
Echo o'er land and sea,
Freedom for all.
Let the glad tidings fly,And every tribe reply,
Glory to God on high,
At Slavery's fall.
