<pre>Hymn 46
C.M.
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 heav'nly guards around
Attend him rising through 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 honors sing;
O'er all the earth he reigns.

4. Speak of his praise with awe profound,
Let knowledge guide the song;
Nor mock him with a solemn sound
Upon a thoughtless tongue.

5. Loud be the shouts of sacred joy
To God the sov'reign king!
Let every land their tongues employ,
And hymns of triumph sing.</pre>
