557 Hosanna, Hosanna

1 Rejoice, ye pure in heart! Rejoice, give thanks and sing! Your glorious banner wave on high, the cross of Christ your King.

Refrain: Rejoice, rejoice, rejoice, give thanks, and sing.

2 With all the angel choirs, with all the saints of earth, pour out the strains of joy and bliss, true rapture, noblest mirth. (Refrain)

3 Your clear hosannas raise. and alleluias loud; while answering echoes upward float, like wreaths of incense cloud. (Refrain)

4 Yes, on through life's long path, still chanting as ye go; from youth to age, by night and day, in gladness and in woe. (Refrain)

5 Still lift your standard high, still march in firm array, as warriors through the darkness toil, till dawns the golden day. (Refrain)

6 At last the march shall end; the wearied ones shall rest; the pilgrims find their Father's house, Jerusalem the blessed. (Refrain)

7 Then on, ye pure in heart! Rejoice, give thanks and sing! Your glorious banner wave on high, the cross of Christ your King. (Refrain)
