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.
His kingdom cannot fail;
He rules o'er earth and heav'n;
The keys of death and hell
Are to our Jesus giv'n:
Jesus, the Savior reigns,
The God of truth and love:
When He had purged our stains
He took His seat above:
He sits at God's right hand
Till all His foes submit,
And bow to His command,
And fall beneath His feet:
