“O sing unto the Lord a new song; for he hath done marvelous things. His right hand and his holy arm hath gotten him the victory.”―Ps. 98:1.
REJOICE, the Saviour lives again,
The blessed Lamb that once was slain,
His arm hath got the victory,
His ransomed people now are free.
Free from all condemnation now,
What thanks and praise to Him we owe,
To Him who stooped beneath our load,
And died to make us nigh to God.
To Him who washed us in His blood,
And made us kings and priests to God,
To Him eternal glory be
For love so vast, so full, so free.
We love Him, dear to us His name―
Jesus―for evermore the same,
The same upon His Father’s throne
As when He trod this earth alone.
Fast linked with Christ, our risen Head,
The “firstborn from among the dead,”
One with Him in His victory,
Past death and judgment now are we.
In sweeter strains we soon shall sing,
And make the courts of heaven ring,
With songs of triumph, and of praise,
To God, the God of love and grace.
