Rapturous Joy

Hark! that shout of rapturous joy

1

Hark! that shout of rapturous joy,Bursting forth from yonder cloud!Jesus comes! and through the sky,Angels tell their joy aloud.

2

Hark! the trumpet's awful voice,Sounds abroad through sea and land;Let his people now rejoice,Their redemption is at hand.

3

See the Lord appears in view;Heav'n and earth before him fly—Rise ye saints, he comes for you;Rise to meet him in the sky.
