71. Rejoice, Ye Pure in Heart

1 Rejoice, ye pure in heart,
Rejoice, give thanks and sing;
Your festal banner wave on high,
The cross of Christ your King.

Refrain:
Rejoice, rejoice,
Rejoice, give thanks and sing.

2 Bright youth and snow-crowned age,
All those for truth do seek;
Raise high your free, exulting song,
God's wondrous praises speak. [Refrain]

3 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]

4 Then on, ye pure in heart,
Rejoice, give thanks and sing;
Your glorious banner wave on high,
The cross of Christ your King. [Refrain]
