LyicsRe-joice, Re-joice, the promised time is coming,
Re-joice, Re-joice, the wil-der-ness shall bloom,
And Zi-on's children then shall sing,
The deserts all are blos-som-ing.
The gos-pel banner, wide unfurled,
Shall wave in triumph o'er the world.
And eve-ry creature, bond or free,
Shall hail the glo-rious ju-bi-lee.
Rejoice, rejoice, the promised time is coming,
Rejoice, rejoice, Jerusalem shall sing;
From Zion shall the law go forth,
And all shall hear from south to north.
Rejoice, rejoice, the promised time is coming,
Rejoice, rejoice, Jerusalem shall sing;
And truth shall sit on every hill,
And blessings flow in every rill,
And praise shall every heart employ,
And every voice shall shout for joy.
Rejoice, rejoice, the promised time is coming,
Rejoice, rejoice, Jerusalem shall sing.
Rejoice, rejoice, the promised time is coming,
Rejoice, rejoice, the Prince of Peace shall reign;
And lambs may with the leopard play,
For nought shall harm in Zion's way.
Rejoice, rejoice the promised time is coming,
Rejoice, rejoice, the Prince of Peace shall reign;
The sword and spear of needless worth,
Shall prune the tree and plough the earth,
For peace shall smile from shore to shore,
And nations shall learn war no more.
Rejoice, rejoice, the promised time is coming,
Rejoice, rejoice, the Prince of Peace shall reign.
