Let the Heavens Rejoice | Psalm 96 (95 Septuagint) | Orthodox Christian Liturgical Hymn | Russian Cross | Orthodox Christian HoodieAnd He hath properly called His work by a name which signifies good tidings. Yea, for it was a removal of punishment, and remissionof sins, and "righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption," and adoption, and an inheritance of Heaven, and a relationship unto the Son of God, which He came declaring unto all; to enemies, to the perverse, to them that were sitting in darkness. What then could ever be equal to these good tidings? God on earth, man

free her from the bonds of weakness and blindness

'Blessed is the Glory of the Lord from His Place'

and I do not know where they have laid Him

Cover me all in all with my five senses

and go to the Father

praise Him in the highest

and the prince of the kings of the earth

yet they shall not break

the distractions and entertainments of the world captivate the senses and keep the soul in a state of sleep

and they are burned

as a roaring lion

a life in emulation of Christ is not possible
