Lyrics

We meet again with hearts aflame,
To praise the dear Re­deem­er’s name
With voic­es full of love and song;
Behold a hap­py throng!

Refrain

Then shout aloud, while hills re­sound
Re-echo with a joy­ful sound;
Let Christ be king! let Christ be king!
To Him our praise we bring!

We thank our Sav­ior and our Lord
For all the sweet­ness of His Word,
The cross at which we laid our sin,
The crown we hope to win.

Refrain

O teach us, Lord, in this glad hour
The great­ness of Thy Spir­it’s pow­er;
Reign Thou su­preme in ev­ery heart—
The King of Love Thou art.

Refrain

Be with us in our ev­ery home,
Be with us in the days to come;
May Saved to Serve our mot­to be,
While work­ing still for Thee.
