Rejoice, the Lord is King!
Author: Charles Wesley; John Taylor Hymnal: The Hymnal #521 (1916) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics:
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!

Jesus the Savior 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!
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!
Rejoice in glorious hope!
Jesus the Judge shall come,
And take his servants up
To their eternal home.
We soon shall hear the archangel's voice;
The trump of God shall sound: Rejoice!

When Jesus' time was fully come
Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #LXXXVII (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics: 1 When Jesus' time was fully come
To leave this world below;
Then he return'd to heav'n, his home!
Where he is worship'd now.
2 His work on earth is all complete:
His suff'rings have an end;
In heav'n he took his place and seat,
And reigns at God's right hand.
3 The Hosts of heaven praise his name,
And of his wonders sing;
Then let us join to do the same
And worship him our King.
4 To him, are endless praises due.
From all that live and move;
Yet men or angels cannot shew
The greatness of his love.
5 We shall more fully sing his praise:
When we get near his throne--
And love and thank him all our days,
For all that he has done. Scripture: Mark 16:14-20 Languages: English
When Jesus' time was fully come
Thou art gone up on high
Author: Emma L. Toke Hymnal: The Hymnal #189 (1916) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics:
Thou art gone up on high
To mansions in the skies;
And round Thy throne unceasingly
The songs of praise arise:
But we are lingering here,
With sin and care oppressed;
Lord, send thy promised Comforter,
And lead us to Thy rest.
Thou art gone up on high;
But Thou didst first come down,
Through earth's most bitter agony,
To pass unto Thy crown;
And girt with griefs and fears
Our onward course must be;
But only let that path of tears
Lead us at last to thee.
Thou art gone up on high;
But Thou shalt come again,
With all the bright ones of the sky
Attendant in Thy train.
Lord, by Thy saving power,
So make us live and die,
That we may stand, in that dread hour,
At Thy right hand on high.
Amen.

Thou art gone up on high
Jesus our Lord to heav'n is gone
Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #LXXXVIII (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics: 1 Jesus our Lord to heav'n is gone,
And sits at God's right hand!
Where angels, him their sovereign own,
And are at his command.
2 Lo he ascends with pow'r and might,
To heav'n from whence he came--
And there he reigns in glorious light,
And angels praise his name.
3 For that he once himself abas'd,
And died to set us free;
He is by all in heaven prais'd,
And will for ever be.
4 Once more on earth he is to come,
To judge the human race
And take his ransom'd people home,
To know his pow'r and grace.
Scripture: Acts 1:1-11 Languages: English
Jesus our Lord to heav'n is gone
Golden harps are sounding
Author: Frances R. Havergal Hymnal: The Hymnal #560b (1916) Meter: 6.5.6.5.6.5.6.5.6.5.6.5 Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics:
Golden harps are sounding,
Angel voices sing,
Pearly gates are opened,
Opened for the King;
Jesus, King of glory,
Jesus, King of love,
Is gone up in triumph,
To his throne above.
All his work is ended,
Joyfully we sing,
Jesus hath ascended!
Glory to our King!
He who came to save us,
He who bled and died,
Now is crowned with glory
At his Father's side.
Nevermore to suffer,
Nevermore to die;
Jesus, King of glory,
Is gone up on high!
Pleading for his children
In that blessèd place,
Calling them to glory,
Sending them his grace;
522
His bright home preparing,
Faithful ones, for you;
Jesus ever liveth
Ever loveth too.
Amen.

Golden harps are sounding
Look, ye saints; the sight is glorious
Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: The Hymnal #185b (1916) Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics:
Look, ye saints; the sight is glorious;
See the "Man of sorrows" now;
From the fight returned victorious,
Every knee to Him shall bow;
Crown Him! Crown Him!
Crowns become the Victor's brow.
Crown the Savior, angels crown Him;
Rich the trophies Jesus brings;
On the seat of power enthrone Him,
While the vault of heaven rings;
Crown Him! Crown Him!
Crown the Savior King of kings.
Sinners in derision crowned Him,
Mocking thus Messiah's claim;
Saints and angels crowd around Him,
Own his title, praise his Name:
Crown Him! Crown Him!
Spread abroad the Victor's fame!
Hark! those bursts of acclamation!
Hark! those loud triumphant chords!
Jesus takes the highest station;
O what joy the sight affords!
Crown Him! Crown Him!
King of kings, and Lord of lords.
Tune Title: VICTOR'S CROWN
Look, ye saints; the sight is glorious
Lift up your heads, ye mighty gates!
Author: Georg Weissel; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The Hymnal #186 (1916) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics:
Lift up your heads, ye mighty gates!
Behold the King of glory waits;
The King of kings is drawing near;
The Savior of the world is here.
The Lord is just, a helper tried;
Mercy is ever at his side;
His kingly crown is holiness;
His scepter, pity in distress.
O blest the land, the city blest,
Where Christ the Ruler is confessed!
O happy hearts and happy homes
To whom this King of triumph comes!
Fling wide the portals of your heart!
Make it a temple, set apart
From earthly use for heaven's employ,
Adorned with prayer and love and joy.
Redeemer, come! I open wide
My heart to thee: here, Lord abide!
Let me thy inner presence feel:
Thy grace and love in me reveal.
So come, my Sovereign! enter in!
Let new and nobler life begin!
Thy Holy Spirit, guide us on,
Until the glorious crown be won!
Amen.

Lift up your heads, ye mighty gates!
Our Lord is risen from the dead
Author: Charles Wesley; John Wesley Hymnal: The Hymnal #187 (1916) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics:
Our Lord is risen from the dead;
Our Jesus is gone up on high;
The powers of hell are captive led,
Dragged to the portals of the sky.
There his triumphal chariot waits,
And angels chant the solemn lay:
"Lift up your heads, ye heavenly gates,"
Ye everlasting doors, give way.
Loose all your bars of massy light,
And wide unfold the radiant scene;
He claims those mansions as his right;
Receive the King of glory in.
Who is the King of glory, Who?
The Lord that all his foes o'ercame,
The world, sin, death, and hell o'erthrew;
And Jesus is the Conqueror's name.
Lo! His triumphal chariot waits,
And angels chant the solemn lay:
"Lift up your heads, ye heavenly gates,"
Ye everlasting doors, give way.

Who is the King of glory, Who?
The Lord, of boundless power possessed,
The King of saints and angels too,
God, over all, for ever blest.

Our Lord is risen from the dead
The head, that once was crown'd with thorns
Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: The Hymnal #188 (1916) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics:
The head, that once was crowned with thorns,
Is crowned with glory now;
A royal diadem adorns
The mighty Victor's brow.
The highest place that heaven affords
Is His, is His by right,
The King of kings, and Lord of lords,
And heaven's eternal Light.
The joy of all who dwell above;
The joy of all below,
To whom He manifests His love
And grants His Name to know.
To them the cross with all its shame,
With all its grace is given;
Their name, an everlasting name,
Their joy, the joy of heaven.
They suffer with their Lord below,
They reign with Him above,
Their profit and their joy to know
The mystery of His love.
The cross He bore is life and health,
Though shame and death to Him:
His people's hope, His people's wealth,
Their everlasting theme.

The head, that once was crown'd with thorns
Hail, Thou once despised Jesus!
Author: John Bakewell; Martin Madan; Augustus M.Toplady Hymnal: The Hymnal #191b (1916) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics:
Hail, Thou once despised Jesus!
Hail, thou Galilean King!
Thou didst suffer to release us;
Thou didst free salvation bring.
Hail, Thou agonizing Savior,
Bearer of our sin and shame!
By Thy merit we find favor:
Life is given through Thy Name.
Paschal Lamb, by God appointed,
All our sins on Thee were laid:
By almighty love anointed,
Thou hast full atonement made.
All Thy people are forgiven
Through the virtue of Thy blood:
Opened is the gate of heaven,
Peace is made 'twixt man and God.
Jesus, hail! enthroned in glory,
There for ever to abide;
All the heavenly hosts adore Thee,
Seated at thy Father's side.
There for sinners Thou art pleading:
There Thou dost our place prepare;
Ever for us interceding,
Till in glory we appear.
Worship, honor, power, and blessing
Thou art worthy to receive:
Loudest praises, without ceasing,
Meet it is for us to give.
Help, ye bright angelic spirits!
Bring your sweetest, noblest lays!
Help to sing our Savior's merits!
Help to chant Emmanuel's praise!
Amen.

Hail, Thou once despised Jesus!
