EARTH, rejoice, our Lord is King!
By A Collection of Hymns

      7s.
      1 EARTH, rejoice, our Lord is King!
      Sons of men, his praises sing;
      Sing ye in triumphant strains,
      Jesus the Messiah reigns!

      2 Power is all to Jesus given,
      Lord of hell, and earth, and heaven,
      Every knee to him shall bow;
      Satan, hear, and tremble now!

      3 Angels and archangels join,
      All triumphantly combine,
      All in Jesu's praise agree,
      Carrying on his victory.

      4 Though the sons of night blaspheme,
      More there are with us than them;
      God with us, we cannot fear;
      Fear, ye fiends, for Christ is here!

      5 Lo! to faith's enlightened sight,
      All the mountain flames with light,
      Hell is nigh, but God is nigher,
      Circling us with hosts of fire.

      6 Christ the Saviour is come down,
      Points us to the victor's crown,
      Bids us take our seats above,
      More than conquerors in his love.
