Author: Rev. Charles Wesley Hymnal: PsH1934 #369 (1934) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, the Lord is King,
Your Lord and King adore;
Rejoice, give thanks, and sing,
And triumph evermore.
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice;
Rejoice! again I say, Rejoice!
2 His kingdom cannot fail,
He rules o'er earth and heaven;
The keys of death and hell
Are to our Jesus given.
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice;
Rejoice! again I say, Rejoice!
3 He all His foes shall quell,
Shall all our sins destroy,
And every bosom swell
With pure seraphic joy.
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice;
Rejoice! again I say, Rejoice!
4 Rejoice in glorious hope;
Jesus, the Judge, shall come,
And take His servants up
To their eternal home.
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice;
Rejoice! again I say, Rejoice! Topics: Heaven; Hell; Hope; Joy; God of Christ as Judge; Second Coming of Christ Languages: English Tune Title: ARTHUR'S SEAT
