635. Rejoice, the Lord Is King

1 Rejoice, the Lord is King!
Your Lord and King adore!
Rejoice, give thanks and sing,
Exultant evermore.
Lift up your heart,
lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!

2 The Lord, our Savior, reigns,
The God of truth and love;
For Christ has purged our sins
And reigns, enthroned above.
Lift up your heart,
lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!

3 God's kingdom cannot fail,
Christ rules o'er earth and heav'n;
The keys of death and hell
To Christ the Lord are giv'n.
Lift up your heart,
lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!

4 Rejoice in glorious hope!
For Christ, the Judge, shall come
To take all those who love
To their eternal home.
Lift up your heart,
lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!
