530. Hark! the song of Jubilee

1 Hark! the song of Jubilee,
Loud as mighty thunders roar,
Or the fullness 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 depths unto the skies,
Wakes above, beneath, around
All creation's harmonies;--
See Jehovah's banner furl'd,
Sheath'd his sword: he speaks--'tis done;
And the kingdoms of this world
Are the kingdoms of his Son.

3 He shall reign from pole to pole
With illimitable sway;
He shall reign, when like a scroll
Yonder heav'ns have pass'd away:--
Then the end;--beneath his rod
Man's last enemy shall fall;
Hallelujah! Christ in God,
God in Christ is all in all.
