Lyics

Hark! the song of Jubilee,

Loud as mighty thunders roar,

Or the fullness of the sea,

When it breaks upon the shore!

Hallelujah! for the Lord

God omnipotent, shall reign!

Hallelujah! let the word

Echo round the earth and main.



Hallelujah! hark, the sound,

From the depths unto the skies,

Wakes above, beneath, around,

All creation's harmonies!

See Jehovah's banner furled,

Sheathed his sword; he speaks--'tis done!

And the kingdoms of this world

Are the kingdoms of his Son!



He shall reign from pole to pole,

With illumitable sway;

He shall reign, when like a scroll

Yonder heavens have passed away,

Then the end: beneath his rod

Man's last enemy shall fall:

Hallelujah! Christ in God,

God in Christ, is all in all!
