17 ~ Rejoice, Ye Pure in Heart
1
Rejoice, ye pure in heart, Rejoice, give thanks and sing; Your festal banner wave on high, The Cross of Christ your King.
Refrain
Rejoice, rejoice, Rejoice, give thanks and sing.
2
Bright youth and snow-crowned age, Strong men and maidens meek; Raise high your free, exulting song, God's wondrous praises speak.
3
With all the angel choirs, With all the saints on earth, Pour out the strains of joy and bliss, True rapture, noblest mirth.
4
Yes, on through life's path, Still chanting as ye go; From youth to age, by night and day, In gladness and in woe.
5
Then on, ye pure in heart, Rejoice, give thanks, and sing; Your glorious banner wave on high, The Cross of Christ your King.
