53. Let Earth’s Inhabitants Rejoice

1. Let earth’s inhabitants rejoice
And gladly hail the glorious hour;
Again is heard a prophet’s voice,
And all may feel the gospel’s pow’r.

2. The blissful time will soon arrive,
The day by holy men foretold,
When man no more with man will strive,
And all in each a friend behold.

3. Oppression will no more be found,
Nor tyrant hold relentless sway,
But love to God and man abound
Thru-out the long millennial day.
