Hark! the song of jubilee
1
Hark! the song of jubilee;Loud as mighty thunders roar,Or the fullness of the seaWhen it breaks upon the shore:Hallelujah! 'tis the Lord!Lo, he comes on earth to reign;Hallelujah! let the wordEcho round the earth and main.
2
Hallelujah!—hark! the soundRises joyful to the skies;From above, beneath, around,Wake creation's harmonies:See Jehovah's banner furled,Sheathed his sword: he speaks,—'t is done,Now the kingdoms of this worldAre the kingdoms of his Son.
3
He shall reign from pole to poleWith supreme, unbounded sway;He shall reign, when, like a scroll,Yonder heavens have passed away:Then beneath his iron rod,Man's last enemy shall fall;Hallelujah! to our God,Lo, he comes to conquer all.
