"Rejoice, Ye Pure in Heart"
The Choir and Banners, St. Patrick's Catholic Cathedral, Dublin, County Dublin, Eire (Ireland)
Rejoice, ye pure in heart, Rejoice, give thanks, and sing.
Your festal banner wave on high, The cross of Christ your King.
Rejoice, rejoice, Rejoice, give thanks, and sing!
Saint Mary and the Choir of Angels, from the Wilton Diptych
With all the angel choirs, With all the saints on earth,
Pour out the strains of joy and bliss, True rapture, noblest mirth!
Rejoice, rejoice, Rejoice, give thanks, and sing!
Mother Teresa
Yes, on through life's long path, Still chanting as we go;
From youth to age, by night and day, In gladness and in woe.
Rejoice, rejoice, Rejoice, give thanks, and sing!
The Star-Spangled Banner
Still lift your standard high, Still march in firm array;
As warriors through the darkness toil Till dawns the golden day.
Rejoice, rejoice, Rejoice, give thanks, and sing!
