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!

Jesus 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!

He sits at God's right hand,

Till all his foes submit,

And bow to his command,

And fall beneath his feet.

Lift up your heart! lift up your voice!

Rejoice! again I say, rejoice!

Rejoice in glorious hope!

Jesus the Judge shall come,

And take his servants up

To their eternal home.

We soon shall hear the archangel's voice;

The trump of God shall sound: Rejoice!
