Author: James H. Evans, 1785-1849 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10008 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, ye saints, rejoice and praise The blessings of redeeming grace! Jesus, your everlasting tower, Stands firm against the tempter’s power. 2 He is a refuge ever nigh; His love endures as mountains high; His name’s a rock, which winds above And waves below can never move. 3 While all things change, He changes not; He ne’er forgets, though oft forgot; His love will ever be the same; His Word, enduring as His name. 4 Rejoice, ye saints, rejoice and praise The blessings of this wondrous grace! Jesus, your everlasting tower Can bear, unmoved, the tempest’s power. Languages: English Tune Title: LONGWOOD
