REJOICE, THE LORD IS KING!

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!

REJOICE, THE LORD IS KING!

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!

REJOICE, THE LORD IS KING!

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!

REJOICE, THE LORD IS KING!

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, THE LORD IS KING!

He all His foes shall quell,

shall all our sins destroy,

And every bosom swell

with pure seraphic joy;

​

Lift up your heart, lift up your voice;

Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!

REJOICE, THE LORD IS KING!

Rejoice in glorious hope!

Jesus the Judge shall come,

And take His servants up

to their eternal home.

We soon shall hear

th’archangel’s voice;

The trump of God

shall sound, rejoice!

Charles Wesley (1707-1788)
