1 Rejoice, the Lord is King!
The risen Christ adore!
Rejoice, give thanks, and sing,
and triumph evermore:
lift up your heart,
lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!
2 God's reign can never fail,
Christ 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!
3 Rejoice in glorious hope!
For Christ, our Judge, shall come
to glorify the saints
for their eternal home:
lift up your heart,
lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!
