HARK! the song of jubilee,
Loud as mighty thunders’ roar,
Or the fulness 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.
2
Hallelujah! hark! the sound,
From the center to 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 kingdom of His Son.
3
He shall reign from pole to pole
With illimitable 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.
