Lyics

Hark! the song of Ju---bi-lee,

Loud as might-y thun-ders roar,

Or the full-ness of the sea 

When it breaks up - on the shore!

Hal-le-lu-jah for the Lord 

God om-nip-o-tent shall reign!

Hal-le-lu-jah! let the word

Ech-o round the earth and main.



Hallelujah! Hark! the sound,

From the depths unto the skies,

Wakes above, beneath, around,

All creations harmonies.

See Jehovah's banner furled,

Sheathed his sword: be speaks-'t is 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!
