1 Rejoice, the Lord is King: Your Lord and King adore! Rejoice, give thanks and sing, And triumph evermore: Refrain: Lift up your heart, lift up your voice! Rejoice, again I say, rejoice! 2 Jesus, the Saviour reigns, The God of truth and love; When he had purged our stains He took his seat above. (Refrain) 3 His kingdom cannot fail, He rules o'er earth and heav'n; The keys of death and hell Are to our Jesus giv'n. (Refrain) 4 He sits at God's right hand Till all his foes submit, And bow to his command And fall beneath his feet. (Refrain) 5 Rejoice in glorious hope! Our Lord, the Judge, shall come, And take his servants up To their eternal home. (Refrain)
