God Is Gone Up on High

God is gone up on high

With a tri­umph­ant noise;

The cla­ri­ons of the sky

Proclaim the an­gel­ic joys!

Join all on earth

re­joice and sing;

Glory as­cribe to glo­ry’s king.

God in the flesh be­low

For us He reigns ab­ove:

Let all the na­tions know

Our Je­su’s con­quer­ing love!

Join all on earth

re­joice and sing;

Glory as­cribe to glo­ry’s king.

All pow­er to our great Lord

Is by the Fa­ther giv­en;

By an­gel hosts ad­ored

He reigns su­preme in Heav’n:

Join all on earth

re­joice and sing;

Glory as­cribe to glo­ry’s king.

High on His ho­ly seat

He bears the right­eous sway;

His foes be­neath His feet

Shall sink and die away:

Join all on earth

re­joice and sing;

Glory as­cribe to glo­ry’s king.

His foes and ours are one

Satan

the world

and sin;

But He shall tread them down.

And bring His king­dom in:

Join all on earth

re­joice and sing;

Glory as­cribe to glo­ry’s king.

Till all the earth

re­newed

In right­eous­ness di­vine

With all the hosts of God

In one great chor­us join

Join all on earth

re­joice and sing;

Glory as­cribe to glo­ry’s king.
