LyicsRejoice, the Lord is King,
The Prince of Life adore:
O Zion, shout and sing,
And triumph evermore;
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice;
With gladness great do ye rejoice.
Jesus, the Saviour, reigns;
His character is love,
When he had purg'd our sins,
He took his seat above:
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice,
With gladness great do ye rejoice.
His kingdom cannot fail;
He rules o'er earth and heav'n;
The keys of death and hell
Are to our Jesus giv'n:
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice,
With gladness great do ye rejoice.
He all our foes shall quell,
Shall death itself destroy;
And all his people fill
With pure celestial joy:
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice,
With gladness great do ye rejoice.
Rejoice in glorious hope,
Jesus, the Judge shall come,
And take his servants up
To their eternal home.
We soon shall hear th' archangel's voice,
The trump of God shall sound "rejoice."
