Author: | Charles Wesley |
Tune: | DARWALL'S 148TH |
Composer: | John Darwall |
1 Rejoice, the Lord is King:
Your Lord and King adore!
Rejoice, give thanks, and sing,
And triumph ever more:
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!
2 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!
3 He all His foes shall quell,
Shall all our sins destroy,
And every bosom swell
With pure seraphic joy:
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!
Amen.
