Praise of the Lord - His Kingdom

Verse 1

Rejoice, the Lord is King,

Your Lord and King adore;

Mortals, give thanks and sing,

And triumph evermore:

chorus

Lift up your heart, lift up your voice;

Rejoice, again I say, rejoice.

Verse 2

His kingdom cannot fail;

He rules o'er earth and heav'n;

The keys of death and hell

Are to our Jesus giv'n:

chorus

Lift up your heart, lift up your voice;

Rejoice, again I say, rejoice.

Verse 3

Jesus, the Savior reigns,

The God of truth and love:

When He had purged our stains,

He took His seat above:

chorus

Lift up your heart, lift up your voice;

Rejoice, again I say, rejoice.

Verse 4

He sits, at God's right hand

Till all His foes submit,

And bow to His command,

And fall beneath His feet:

chorus

Lift up your heart, lift up your voice;

Rejoice, again I say, rejoice.
