Rejoice with one accord; Rejoice with all your heart and voice, In Christ, th'exalted Lord. 2 Rejoice! Rejoice! lift up your heads, And praise the living God; That for your souls the Saviour shed His own most precious blood. 3 Rejoice! Rejoice! in His sweet name, With all His saints above; Our Jesus still abides the same, And changeless in His love. 4 Rejoice! Rejoice! let praise abound Before Jehovah's throne; For dead ones raised, and lost ones found, And prodigals brought home. 5 Rejoice! Rejoice! ye happy band Of pilgrims bound for heav'n; For mercies countless as the sand Have to your souls been giv'n. 6 Rejoice! Rejoice! the Lord shall come, According to His Word; And gather all His ransomed home, Forever with the Lord. Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 5:16 Used With Tune: ZION'S COURTS

There is a glorious world on high

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 69 hymnals Topics: The Joy and Happiness of True Christians Lyrics: 1 There is a glorious world on high, Resplendent with eternal day; Faith views the blissful prospect nigh, While God's own word reveals the way. 2 There shall the fav'rites of the Lord With never-fading lustre shine. Surprising honour! vast reward! Conferr'd on man by love divine. 3 How blest are those, how truly wise, Who learn and keep the sacred road! Happy the men whom heav'n employs To turn rebellious hearts to God! 4 To win them from the fatal way, Where erring folly thoughtlessly roves; And that blest righteousness display, Which Jesus taught and God approves. 5 The shining firmament shall fade, And sparkling stars resign their light: But these shall know nor change nor shade, For ever fair, for ever bright. 6 On wings of faith and strong desire, O may our spirits daily rise; And reach at last the shining choir, In the bright mansions of the skies!

Living in the Sunshine

Author: Rev. T. O. Crouse, D. D. Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Joy First Line: I am living in the sunshine Refrain First Line: O come into the sunshine of His love Lyrics: 1 I am living in the sunshine Of my Saviour’s perfect love, And by faith I see Him seated On His glorious throne above. There, approved of God the Father, He forever pleads for me; And His faithful word declareth There is pardon full and free. Refrain: O come into the sunshine of His love, Receive the great salvation from above; It gives you glad release, And fills your heart with peace; O come into the sunshine, the sunshine of His love. 2 O this sunshine! how its glory Fills my heart with constant peace; And from bondage without measure It has brought me glad release. Once life’s little cares would fret me, Threat’ning ills my soul affright; But the sweetness of his sunshine Makes the heavy crosses light. [Refrain] 3 Gladly now my feet are running On the errands of my Lord; And to do or suffer for Him, Deep contentment doth afford. At each step the way grows brighter; Golden glory fills the sky; In the promise of His coming, Our redemption draweth nigh. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [I am living in the sunshine]
