Rejoice in the Lord Lyrics

I thank my God for all of you

Partners in grace, in love so true

The work He started, He will complete

Until we stand before His feet

In chains, in trials, still I sing

For Christ is life, my everything

To live is Christ, to die is gain

No fear in death, no loss, no shame

Oh, rejoice, again I say

The Lord is near, don't be afraid

In every trial, in darkest night

His joy will be my guiding light

Let this mind be found in you

As Jesus walked in love so true

He left the throne, He bore our weight

A servant's heart, a sinner's fate

But God has raised Him high above

The name exalted, crowned in love

At Jesus' name, all knees will bow

In heaven, on earth, and even now

Oh, rejoice, again I say

The Lord is near, don't be afraid

In every trial, in darkest night

His joy will be my guiding light

Forgetting what is left behind

I press ahead, the prize in mind

Not in my strength, but through His grace

I stand secure in love's embrace

Be anxious not, lift prayers high

The peace of God will guard my life

Whatever's true, whatever's right

Let these things fill your heart and mind

Oh, rejoice, again I say

The Lord is near, don't be afraid

In every trial, in darkest night

His joy will be my guiding light

I can do all through Christ alone

His mighty strength will lead me home

My God will meet my every need

Through riches found in Christ the King

To Him be glory, now and then

Forevermore, Amen, Amen
