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 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!
3 He sits at God's right hand
till all his foes submit,
bow down at his command
and fall beneath his feet.
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 gather all his saints
to their eternal home.
We soon shall hear the archangel's voice;
the trump of God shall sound, rejoice! Topics: Ascension; Christian year--Ascension; Christian year--Reign of Christ Used With Tune: DARWALL
