Where are these songs from

[Dan2804]

Hi all,

Trying to remember where these songs came from from a KS2 nativity play I did about 10 years ago. Found these lyrics online from 2015 but no reference as to where they come from. Can anybody help?????

Rejoice – Year 3, 4, 5 and 6
So let’s dance and rejoice,
clap our hands, lift our voice.
God is good so let’s all sing
praises to the one
who is the Lord of everything.
God is King!
God is King!

Rejoice, rejoice
in God above.
A light will shine into the dark
and fill the world with love.
To lead us back
to God once more
and free from sorrow, sin and death.
We will live for ever more.

So let’s dance and rejoice,
clap our hands, lift our voice.
God is good so let’s all sing
praises to the one
who is the Lord of everything.
God is King!
God is King!

Rejoice, rejoice
in God above.
A light will shine into the dark
and fill the world with love.
To lead us back
to God once more
and free from sorrow, sin and death.
We will live for ever more.

So let’s dance and rejoice,
clap our hands, lift our voice.
God is good so let’s all sing
praises to the one
who is the Lord of everything.
God is King!
God is King!
