Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #226 (1961) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Hymnal Title: Trinity Hymnal Lyrics: 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, the Saviour 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 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. Topics: Christ, The Lord Jesus; Christ Exaltation of; Christ Kingly Office of; Joy Scripture: Ephesians 1:20 Languages: English Tune Title: ARTHUR'S SEAT
