Let the righteous be glad… yea, let them exceedingly rejoice” – Psalm 68:3
1 Be glad in the Lord and rejoice
And ye that are upright in heart;
And ye that have made Him your choice
Bid sadness and sorrow depart.
Chorus:
Rejoice…rejoice!
Be glad in the lord and rejoice!
Rejoice!… rejoice!…
Be glad in the lord and rejoice!
2 Be joyful for He is the Lord,
On earth and in heaven supreme:
He fashions and rules by His words;
The “Mighty” and “Strong to redeem
3 What tho’ in the conflict for right
Your enemies almost prevail!
God’s armies, just hid from your sight,
Are more than the foes which assail.
4 Tho darkness surround you by day,
Your sky by the night be o’ercast,
Let nothing your spirit dismay,
But trust till the danger is past.
5 Be glad in the Lord and rejoice,
His praises proclaiming in song,
With harp, and with organ, and voice,
The loud hallelujahs prolong!
