Christ ascending and Reigning

Hymnal: Doctor Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David #82 (1790) Topics: Ascension of Christ; Ascension of Christ First Line: Oh for a shout of sacred joy Lyrics: 1 Oh for a shout of sacred joy To God the sovereign King! Let every land their tongues employ, And hymns of triumph sing. 2 Jesus our God ascends on high; His heavenly guards around Attend him rising thro' the sky, With trumpet's joyful sound. 3 While angels shout and praise their King, Let mortals learn their strains; Let all the earth his honours sing; O’er all the earth he reigns. 4 Rehearse his praise with awe profound, Let knowledge guide the song; Nor mock him with a solemn sound Upon a thoughtless tongue. 5 In Israel stood his antient throne, He lov'd that chosen race; But now he calls the world his own, And heathens taste his grace. 6 The Gentile nations are the Lord’s, There Abraham’s God is known; While powers and princes, shields and swords Submit before his throne.
