The Lord is king! Lift up your voice

Author: J. Conder (1789-1855) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #183 (1987) Topics: The Ascension of Christ Lyrics: 1 The Lord is king! Lift up your voice, O earth, and all you heavens, rejoice; from world to world the joy shall ring: 'The Lord omnipotent is king!' 2 The Lord is king! Who then shall dare resist his will, distrust his care, or quarrel with his wise decrees, or doubt his royal promises? 3 The Lord is king! Child of the dust, the judge of all the earth is just; holy and true are all his ways — let every creature speak his praise! 4 God reigns! He reigns with glory crowned: let Christians make a joyful sound! And Christ is seated at his side: the man of love, the crucified. 5 Come, make your needs, your burdens known: he will present them at the throne; and angel hosts are waiting there his messages of love to bear. 6 One Lord one kingdom all secures: he reigns, and life and death are yours; through earth and heaven one song shall ring: 'The Lord omnipotent is king!'

God will make new heavens and earth — songs of praise shall hail their birth! 4 And must we alone be dumb till that glorious kingdom come? No! the church delights to raise psalms and hymns and songs of praise. 5 Saints below, with heart and voice still in songs of praise rejoice; learning here by faith and love, songs of praise to sing above. 6 Hymns of glory, songs of praise, Father, these to you we raise; Saviour, Jesus, risen Lord, with the Spirit be adored.
