“Rejoice in the Lord.” Joel 2. 23; Hab. 3. 18

1 Let saints lift up their hearts,
  And, with a cheerful voice,
  The wonders of their King proclaim,
  And in the Lord rejoice.

2 Whatever be thy frame,
  Though dark and cold as ice,
  No change has taken place in him;
  Then in the Lord rejoice.

3 Till God can change his mind,
  And swear he has no choice,
  The soul that in the Lord believes,
  Shall in the Lord rejoice.

4 As sure as God is God,
  And Abra’m heard his voice,
  He’ll love his saints unto the end,
  Then let them all rejoice.

5 Nor sin, nor death, nor hell,
  Can make him hate his choice;
  The cause of love is in himself;
  And in him we’ll rejoice.

6 He made an end of sin,
  And bought us with a price;
  Our life, our hope, our all’s in him,
  And we’ll in him rejoice.
