LyicsHARK! how the gospel trumpet sounds!
Through all the earth the echo bounds!
For Jesus, by redeeming blood,
Is bringing sinners back to God;
And guides them safely by his word,
To endless day.
Hail! all-victorious, conq'ring Lord!
Be thou by all thy works ador'd!
Who undertook for sinful men,
And brought salvation through thy name,
That we with thee might ever reign
In endless day.
Fight on, you conq'ring souls fight on
Until the conquest you have won!
Then palms of vict'ry you shall bear,
And in his kingdom have a share,
And crowns of glory you shall wear
In endless day.
There we shall in sweet chorus join,
And saints and angels all combine
To sing of his redeeming love,
When rolling years shall cease to move,
And this shall be our theme above,
In endless day.
