Lyrics
-
1. Rejoice, ye Saints of latter days,For temples now in many lands,Where Saints, endowed with pow'r from God,May learn to keep the Lord's commands,May learn to keep the Lord's commands.
-
2. Come, let us go up to his house;We'll make our covenants and say:"All we are giv'n we give to thee.Accept our love; we will obey.Accept our love; we will obey."
-
3. O Saints, rejoice! Our kindred deadMay now receive eternallyThe fulness of the gospel's joy.Arise, ye Saints, and set them free!Arise, ye Saints, and set them free!
-
4. His earthly kingdom now preparesTo greet his kingdom from above.Then will the heavens shout for joy,And Christ descend to reign in love,And Christ descend to reign in love.
