- Be glad in the Lord and rejoice,
All ye that are upright in heart,
And ye that have made Him your choice,
Bid sadness and sorrow depart.
Chorus:
Rejoice! … Rejoice!
Be glad in The Lord and rejoice!
Rejoice! … Rejoice!
Be glad in The Lord and rejoice!
- Be joyful, for He is the Lord,
On earth and in heaven supreme;
He fashions and rules by His Word;
The ‘mighty’ and ‘strong’ to redeem. - What though in the conflict for right,
Your enemies almost prevail!
God’s armies just hid from your sight,
Are more than the foes which assail. - Though darkness surround you by day,
Your sky by the night be o’er cast,
Let nothing your spirit dismay,
But trust till the danger is past. - Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice,
His praises proclaiming in song;
With harp, and with organ and voice,
The loud hallelujahs prolong!
