“God Has Gone Up With Shouts of Joy” - song for Christ the King week

In staff meeting today we sang “God Has Gone Up With Shouts of Joy” (Sing #154), which, we noted, was written for Ascension Day but ably fits the days following Christ the King Sunday, the climax of the Christian year:

God has gone up with shouts of joy!
Christ claims the throne of glory:
immortal Word in mortal flesh
to share with God our story
of humans lost to death and sin
who ache to be invited in
to Love’s eternal blessing.
