Rejoice Ye Pure In Heart

Author: Edward H.plumptre Rejoice ye pure in heart Rejoice, give thanks, and sing Your glorious banner wave on high The cross of Christ your King. Refrain: Rejoice, rejoice, rejoice Give thanks and sing. Bright youth and snow crowned age Strong men and maidens meek Raise high your free, exultant song God's wondrous praises speak. Refrain Yes onward, onward still With hymn, and chant and song Through gate, and porch and columned aisle The hallowed pathways throng. Refrain With all the angel choirs With all the saints of earth Pour out the strains of joy and bliss True rapture, noblest mirth. Refrain Your clear hosannas raise And alleluias loud Whilst answering echoes upward float Like wreaths of incense cloud. Refrain With voice as full and strong As ocean's surging praise Send forth the hymns our fathers loved The psalms of ancient days. Refrain 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. Refrain Still lift your standard high Still march in firm array As warriors through the darkness toil Till dawns the golden day. Refrain At last the march shall end The wearied ones shall rest The pilgrims find their heavenly home Jerusalem the blessed. Refrain Then on, ye pure in heart Rejoice, give thanks and sing Your glorious banner wave on high The cross of Christ your King. Refrain Praise Him Who reigns on high The Lord Whom we adore The Father, Son and Holy Ghost One God forevermore. Refrain |
