Rejoice
Come and stand before your maker
Full of wonder, full of fear;
Come behold his power and glory,
Yet with confidence draw near,
For the One who holds the heavens
And commands the stars above
Is the God who bends to bless us
With an unrelenting love.
Rejoice! Come and lift your hands
and raise your voice;
He is worthy of our praise, Rejoice!
Sing the mercies of your King,
And with trembling, rejoice!
We are children of the promise,
The beloved of the Lord.
Won with everlasting kindness,
Bought with sacrificial blood.
Bringing reconciliation
To a world that longs to know
The affections of a Father
Who will never let them go.
Rejoice! Come and lift your hands
and raise your voice;
He is worthy of our praise, Rejoice!
Sing the mercies of your King,
And with trembling, rejoice!
All our sickness, all our sorrows
Jesus carried up the hill.
He has walked this path before us, He
is walking with us still,
Turning tragedy to triumph,
Turning agony to praise.
There is blessing in the battle
So take heart and stand amazed.
Rejoice! When you cry to Him,
He hears your voice.
He will wipe away your tears.
Rejoice!
In the midst of suffering,
He will help you sing:
Rejoice! Come and lift your hands
and raise your voice:
He is worthy of our praise. Rejoice!
Sing the mercies of your King,
And with trembling, rejoice!
Christ our hope in life and death
What is our hope in life and death?
Christ alone, Christ alone.
What is our only confidence?
That our souls to Him belong.
Who holds our days within His hand?
What comes, apart from His command?
And what will keep us to the end?
The love of Christ, in which we stand.
O sing hallelujah!
Our hope springs eternal;
O sing hallelujah!
Now and ever we confess
Christ our hope in life and death.
What truth can calm the troubled soul?
God is good, God is good.
Where is His grace and goodness known?
In our great Redeemer’s blood.
Who holds our faith when fears arise?
Who stands above the stormy trial?
Who sends the waves that bring us nigh
Unto the shore, the rock of Christ?
O sing hallelujah!
Our hope springs eternal;
O sing hallelujah!
Now and ever we confess
Christ our hope in life and death.
Unto the grave, what shall we sing?
“Christ, He lives; Christ, He lives!”
And what reward will heaven bring?
Everlasting life with Him.
There we will rise to meet the Lord,
Then sin and death will be destroyed,
And we will feast in endless joy,
When Christ is ours forevermore.
O sing hallelujah!
Our hope springs eternal;
O sing hallelujah!
Now and ever we confess
Christ our hope in life and death.
