Lift Up, Lift Up Your Voices Now

J. M. Neale (1854) • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 24:7-10

Verse 1

Lift up, lift up your voices now! The whole wide world rejoices now! The Lord hath triumphed gloriously, The Lord shall reign victoriously!

Verse 2

In vain with stone the cave they barred; In vain the watch kept ward and guard; Majestic from the spoiled tomb, In pomp of triumph Christ is come.

Verse 3

And all He did, and all He bare, He gives us as our own to share; And hope, and joy, and peace begin, For Christ has won, and man shall win.

Verse 4

O Victor, aid us in the fight, And lead through death to realms of light; We safely pass where Thou hast trod; In Thee we die to rise to God.

Verse 5

Amen.
