27 ~ 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
With voice as full and strong As ocean's surging praise, Send forth the sturdy hymns of old, The psalms of ancient days.
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 long path, Still chanting as ye go; From youth to age, by night and day, In gladness and in woe.
5
Praise Him who reigns on high, The Lord whom we adore The Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, One God forevermore.
