Author: Rev. John Samuel Bewley Monsell, 1811-1875 Hymnal: The Sunday School Hymnal #98 (1899) First Line: Sing, O heavens! O earth rejoice! Lyrics: 1 Sing, O heavens! O earth rejoice!
Angel harp and human voice,
Round Him as He rises, raise
Your ascending Saviour’s praise.
2 Refrain
Alleluia, Alleluia,
Alleluia, Alleluia.
3 Bruised is the serpent’s head,
Hell is vanquished, Death is dead,
And to Christ gone up on high,
Captive is captivity.
4 All His work and warfare done,
He into His heaven is gone,
And beside His Father’s throne,
Now is pleading for His own.
5 Asking gifts for sinful men,
That He may come down again.
And, the fallen to restore,
In them dwell for evermore.
6 Sing, O Heavens! O earth, rejoice!
Angel harp, and human voice,
Round Him, in His glory, raise
Your ascending Saviour’s praise. Topics: Christ Advocate; Death; Hell; Warfare; Whitsuntide; Work Tune Title: [Sing, O heavens! O earth rejoice!]
