Rejoice, O earth! the Lord is King!

To him your humble tribute bring;

Let Jacob rise, and Zion sing,

And all the world with praises ring,

And give to Jesus glory!

2 O may the saints of every name

Unite to serve the bleeding Lamb!

May jars and discords cease to flame,

And all the Saviour’s love proclaim,

And give to Jesus glory!

3 We long to see the Christians join

In union sweet and love divine,

And glory through the churches shine,

And Gentiles crowding to the sign,

To give to Jesus glory!

4 O may the distant lands rejoice,

And sinners hear the Bridegroom’s voice,

While praise their happy tongues employs,

And all obtain immortal joys,

And give to Jesus glory!

5 Then tears shall all be wiped away,

And Christians never go astray;

When we are freed from cumbrous clay,

We’ll praise the Lord in endless day,

And give to Jesus glory.
