Rejoice, Rejoice (O’Kane)

The great De­liv’rer long fore­told

In age­s past by seers of old

Has come the cap­tive to set free

And bring the glo­ri­ous ju­bi­lee.

Rejoice

re­joice

Behold the pro­mised Sav­ior;

Rejoice

re­joice

The Prince of Peace has come.

He comes the sin­ner to re­deem

And res­cue from the pow­er of sin;

He comes the lost to seek and save

He comes to tri­umph o’er the grave.

O Zi­on! lift thy rap­tured eye

The long ex­pect­ed hour is nigh;

The joys of na­ture rise again

The Prince of Sa­lem comes to reign.
