Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sound the trumpet
Sound the trumpet
Sound, sound
Sound the trumpet till around
You make the list'ning shores rebound, rebound
The list'ing shores rebound
[Verse 2]
Sound the trumpet
Sound the trumpet
Sound, sound
Sound the trumpet till around
You make the list'ning shores rebound, rebound
The list'ing shores rebound
[Verse 3]
On the sprightly hautboy
The sprightly hautboy play
The sprightly hautboy play
All the instruments of joy
All of the holy instruments of joy, of joy
That skillful members can employ
To celebrate, to celebrate the glories of this day
The glories, the glories of this day
[Verse 4]
On the sprightly hautboy
The sprightly hautboy play
The sprightly hautboy play
All the instruments of joy
All of the holy instruments of joy, of joy
That skillful members can employ
To celebrate, to celebrate the glories of this day
The glories, the glories of this day
Written by: Henry Purcell
