524. Rejoice, the Lord Is King

1 Rejoice, the Lord is King!
Your Lord and King adore!
Rejoice, give thanks and sing,
and triumph evermore:
Lift up your heart,
lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!

2 Jesus, our 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!

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:
Lift up your heart,
lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!

4 Rejoice in glorious hope!
Our Lord and judge shall come
and take his servants up
to their eternal home:
Lift up your heart,
lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!
