The cross of Christ your King.

With all the saints on earth,
Pour out the strains of joy and bliss,
True rapture, noblest mirth! [Refrain]

Still chanting as we go;
From youth to age, by night and day,
In gladness and in woe. [Refrain]

Still march in firm array;
As warriors, through the darkness toil
Till dawns the golden day. [Refrain]
Amen. Tune Title: MARION
Rejoice, Ye Pure in Heart
