Rejoice, give thanks, and sing;
Your glorious banner wave on high,
The cross of Christ your King.
Refrain:
Rejoice, Rejoice,
Rejoice, give thanks and sing.
A-men.
2 Bright youth and snow-crowned age,
Strong men and maidens meek;
Raise high your free, exulting song,
God's wondrous praises speak. [Refrain]
3 With all the angel choirs,
With all the saints on earth,
Pour out the strains of joy and bliss,
True rapture, noblest mirth. [Refrain]
4 Yes, on through life's long path,
Still chanting as ye go;
From youth to age, by night and day,
In gladness and in woe. [Refrain]
5 At last the march shall end,
The wearied ones shall rest,
The pilgrims find their Father's house,
Jerusalem the blest. [Refrain]
6 Then on, ye pure in heart,
Rejoice, give thanks, and sing;
Your glorious banner wave on high,
The cross of Christ your King. [Refrain] Topics: Worship and Praise Adoration; Adoration; Ascension; Jesus Adoration and Praise; Jesus Ascension; Jesus King Languages: English Tune Title: MARION
