Rejoice, all ye believers

Author: Sarah B. Findlater; Laurentius Laurenti Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #233 (1961) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: Malachi 4:2 Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, all ye believers, And let your lights appear; The evening is advancing, And darker night is near: The Bridegroom is arising, And soon he draweth nigh; Up, pray, and watch, and wrestle: At midnight comes the cry. 2 See that your lamps are burning; Replenish them with oil; And wait for your salvation, The end of earthly toil. The watchers on the mountain Proclaim the Bridegroom near, Go meet him as he cometh, With Alleluias clear. 3 Ye saints, who here in patience Your cross and suff'rings bore, Shall live and reign for ever, When sorrow is no more: Around the throne of glory The Lamb ye shall behold, In triumph cast before him Your diadems of gold. 4 Our Hope and Expectation, O Jesus, now appear; Arise, thou Sun so longed for, O'er this benighted sphere. With hearts and hands uplifted, We plead, O Lord to see The day of earth's redemption That brings us unto thee. Amen.

Field and forest, vale and mountain, flowery meadow, flashing sea, chanting bird and flowing fountain, call us to rejoice in thee. 3 Mortals, join the happy chorus which the morning stars began. Love divine is reigning o'er us, joining all in heaven's plan. Ever singing, march we onward, victors in the midst of strife. Joyful music leads us sunward in the triumph song of life.
