Rejoice, In Glorious Hope
The words consist of portions of verses of the hymn, "Rejoice, the Lord is King!" by Charles Wesley in 1744, first appearing in Wesley's Moral and Sacred Poems in 1746.
The first 4 lines track with Wesley's hymn:
"Rejoice in glorious hope! Jesus the Judge shall come, and take his servants up to their eternal home."
The fifth line in found in another verse: "Lift up your heart, lift up your voice;
The final words, Rejoice, he bids his saints rejoice." are anonymous.
They are shown in Wesley's hymn as follows: "We soon shall hear th'archangel's voice; The trump of God shall sound, rejoice!"

Which method of viewing music should I use?
Score Exchange has two methods to display previews of music: seView which uses regular html and javascipt and the Scorch plug-in from Avid which needs to be downloaded and installed onto your computer. Both have advantages and disadvantages:
seView
seView, is the most compatible option. You should be able to view music on all modern web browsers including most mobile devices. Even if your device does not support javascript you should still be able to preview at least page one of the music.
You do not need to install any additional software to use seView.
Scorch
Scorch is a free plug-in from Avid for displaying and printing music. It can also play the music that you're seeing. As modern web browsers are updated, Scorch is no longer compatible with many browsers. Scorch has never been compatible with mobile devices and some web browsers on Mac computers.
If your web browser does not install Scorch automatically, you can click here to download and install scorch manually.
