364. Let saints all rejoice and exult in their King

1 Let saints all rejoice and exult in their King;
To Jesus with joy and with melody sing;
For sinners' redemption his life-blood he gave,
And the "Faithful and True" will never deceive.

2 His name is our glory--his voice is our guide;
Creation shall fail, but His word shall abide;
He sealed with His blood every promise He gave,
And the "Faithful and True" will never deceive.

3 He promised a crown when He gave us a cross;
A kingdom we gain, the reward of our loss;
To glory He leads, and to Him let us cleave,
For the "Faithful and True" will never deceive.

4 In heartfelt affection His presence can cheer;
He feels every sorrow, he wipes every tear;
Through fire and through water, will Jesus e'er leave?
No, the "Faithful and True" can never deceive.

5 See, tried unto death, that Omnipotent Friend!
He dies, as the pledge of our life without end--
He lives to watch o'er us; what more can we crave?
Since the "Faithful and True" will never deceive.

6 'Twas the promise of love,--"I come quickly again,"
He calls us to join the joyful "Amen;"
Of the hope that He gives shall aught then bereave?
No, the "Faithful and True" will never deceive.
