1. Rejoice, ye pure in heart,
Rejoice, give thanks, and sing.
Your festal banner wave on high,
The cross of Christ your King.
Rejoice, rejoice, Rejoice, give thanks, and sing!

2. Bright youth and snow-crowned age,
Both men and women, raise
On high your free, exulting song,
Declare God’s wondrous praise.
Rejoice, rejoice, Rejoice, give thanks, and sing!

3. Still lift your standard high,
Still chanting as you go,
From youth to age, by night and day,
In gladness and in woe.
Rejoice, rejoice, Rejoice, give thanks, and sing!

4. Praise God, who reigns on high,
The Lord whom we adore:
The Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
One God forevermore.
Rejoice, rejoice, Rejoice, give thanks, and sing!
