166. Rejoice! the Lord Is King

1 Rejoice! the Lord is King!
Your Lord and king adore!
Mortals, give thanks and sing,
And triumph evermore:
Lift up your heart! lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!
Lift up your heart! lift up your voice!
Rejoice! again I say, rejoice!

2 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!
Lift up your heart! lift up your voice!
Rejoice! again I say, rejoice!

3 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!
Lift up your heart! lift up your voice!
Rejoice! again I say, rejoice!
