LyicsHARK! ten thousand harps and voices
Sound the note of praise above;
Jesus reigns, and heav'n rejoices--
Jesus reigns, the God of love.
See! He sits on yonder throne;
Jesus rules the world alone.
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Jesus rules the world alone.
Jesus, hail! whose glory brightens
All above, and gives it worth;
Lord of life, Thy smile enlightens,
Cheers, and charms Thy saints on earth;
When we think of love like Thine,
Lord, we own it love divine.
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Lord, we own it love divine.
King of glory, reign forever--
Thine an everlasting crown;
Nothing from Thy love shall sever
Those whom Thou hast made Thine own;
Happy objects of Thy grace,
Destin'd to behold Thy face.
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Destin'd to behold Thy face.
Saviour, hasten Thine appearing;
Bring, O bring the glorious day,
When the awful summons hearing,
Heav'n and earth shall pass away;
Then, with golden harps, we'll sing,
"Glory, glory to our King!"
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Glory, glory to our King!
