Rejoice the Lord is King

Rejoice, the Lord is King!
Your Lord and King adore;
Mortals, give thanks, and sing,
And triumph ever more:

Lift up your heart, lift up your voice;
Rejoice! Again I say: rejoice!

Jesus the Saviour reigns,
The God of truth and love;
When He had purged our stains,
He took His seat above:

Lift up your heart, lift up your voice;
Rejoice! Again I say: rejoice!

His kingdom cannot fail,
He rules o’er earth and heaven;
The keys of death and hell
Are to our Jesus given:

Lift up your heart, lift up your voice;
Rejoice! Again I say: rejoice!

He sits at God’s right hand
Till all His foes submit,
And bow to His command,
And fall beneath His feet:

Lift up your heart, lift up your voice;
Rejoice! Again I say: rejoice!

Rejoice in glorious hope;
Jesus the Judge shall come,
And take His servants up
To their eternal home:

We soon shall hear the archangel’s voice;
The trump of God shall sound: rejoice!
