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.
2 With all the angel choirs,
with all the saints of earth,
pour out the strains of joy and bliss,
true rapture, noblest mirth. [Refrain]
3 Your clear hosannas raise,
and alleluias loud;
while answering echoes upward float,
like wreaths of incense cloud. [Refrain]
4 Yet, 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 Still lift your standard high,
still march in firm array,
as warriors through the darkness toil,
till dawns the golden day. [Refrain] Topics: General Hymns Christian Vocation and Witness Languages: Englsih Tune Title: MARION
Rejoice, rejoice, rejoice, give thanks, and sing
