Representative Text

1 Rejoice, rejoice, let anthems all victorious,
Ring out, ring out, in honor of the King;
Rejoice, rejoice, with voices sweetly blending,
To Him, the Saviour, Lord of all,
Who light and life doth bring.

Refrain:
We will rejoice in Him who
Crowneth all our days with love,
And with His loving-kindness,
Doth enfold our earthly way;
Rejoice in Him whose blessings ever ‘round us fall;
Let all be glad, rejoice, rejoice,
His love is over all.

2 Rejoice, rejoice, and let the song all glorious,
Now swell, now swell, upon the vibrant air;
Rejoice, rejoice, in heaven’s King of glory,
He conquered death for one and all,
And dwells forever there. [Refrain]

3 Rejoice, rejoice, O haste, with hearts adoring,
To tell, to tell, the story of His love;
Rejoice, rejoice, on high He ever reigneth,
And intercedes today for all,
At God’s right hand above. [Refrain]
