Named for Laurieston Hall, Scotland, where a three-day shape note singing workshop was held in May, 2013, this tune is dedicated to all the singers who attended. (Sorry I couldn't be there with you!)


Text

Let Angels sound with endless joy
In praises to their King;
"Live, glorious Lord, and reign on high,
Let every Nation sing."

Come, let us raise our voices high,
Now let our joys arise
And join the songs above the sky,
Where pleasure never dies.
