The Hymnal of The Evangelical United Brethren Church ‎#139

139. Hark! Ten Thousand Harps

1 Hark! ten thousand harps and voices
Sound the note of praise above;
Jesus reigns, and heaven rejoices;
Jesus reigns, the God of Love.
See, He sits on yonder throne;
Jesus rules the world alone.

Refrain:
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
Hallelujah! amen.

2 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,
Destined to behold Thy face. [Refrain]

3 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. [Refrain]

4 Savior, hasten Thine appearing;
Bring, O bring the glorious day,
When, the awful summons hearing,
Heaven and earth shall pass away;
Then with golden harps we'll sing,
Glory, glory, to our King! [Refrain]

Amen.
