Rejoice The Lord Is King

TUNE I: GOPSAL



TUNE II: DARWALL'S 148TH







Rejoice, the Lord is King!
Your Lord and King adore;
mortals, give thanks and sing,
and triumph evermore.

Refrain
Lift up your heart,
lift up your voice; rejoice;
again I say, rejoice.
Jesus the Saviour reigns,
the God of truth and love;
when he had purged our stains,
he took his seat above. (Refrain)

His kingdom cannot fail;
he rules o'er earth and heaven;
the keys of earth and hell
are to our Jesus given. (Refrain)

He sits at God's right hand
till all his foes submit,
and bow to his command,
and fall beneath his feet (Refrain)

Rejoice in glorious hope!
Jesus the Judge shall come
and take his servants up
to their eternal home (Refrain)

Text: Charles Wesley (1707-1788)
Tune: GOPSAL or DARWALL'S 148TH, 66.66.88
