The Cyber Hymnal ‎#13958

13958. Louder, Louder

1 Onward moves the great Eternal,
In the order of His plan;
Louder, nearer rolls the thunder,
Of His awful word to man.

Refrain:
Louder, louder, hallelujah!
See the glorious fountain flow;
From the midst of Heav’n proclaim it,
Oh, it makes me white as snow.

2 Since by sin this earth was blighted,
God has whispered of His love,
Dreams and visions by His prophets,
Breathed of mercy from above. [Refrain]

3 Louder speaks His love in Jesus,
Heaven sweetly chants His fame;
Earth receives its glorious Savior,
Hallelujah to His name! [Refrain]

4 Yet the world is wrapped in slumber,
Louder raise the trumpet’s blast;
Oh in mercy let it thunder,
Ere the day of mercy’s past. [Refrain]

5 In the cages of deception
Souls are pining to be free;
Quickly sound the proclamation
Of the glorious jubilee. [Refrain]
