Methodist-Hymns-246
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 hear!
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.
