Rejoice, the Lord Is King
Rejoice, the Lord Is King
1. Rejoice, the Lord is King!
Your Lord and King adore!
Mortals give thanks and sing
And triumph evermore.
Lift up your heart! Lift up your voice!
Rejoice again; I say, rejoice!
Lift up your heart! lift up your voice!
Rejoice again; I say, rejoice!
2. The Lord, the Savior reigns,
The God of truth and love.
When he had purged our stains,
He took his seat above.
Lift up your heart! Lift up your voice!
Rejoice again; I say, rejoice!
Lift up your heart! lift up your voice!
Rejoice again; I say, rejoice!
3. His kingdom cannot fail;
He rules o’er earth and heaven.
The keys of death and hell
To Christ the Lord are given.
Lift up your heart! Lift up your voice!
Rejoice again; I say, rejoice!
Lift up your heart! lift up your voice!
Rejoice again; I say, rejoice!
