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.
