E93. Hark, Ten Thousand Harps and Voices

1 Hark,! ten thousand harps and voices
Sound the note of praise above!
Jesus reigns, and heav'n rejoices;
Jesus reigns, the God of love;
See, He sits on yonder throne;
Jesus rules the world alone.
Hallelujah! hallelujah! Hallelujah! Amen!

2 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.
Hallelujah! hallelujah! Hallelujah! Amen!

3 Saviour, hasten Thine appearing;
Bring, oh, bring the glorious day,
When, the awful summons hearing,
Heav'n and earth shall pass away;
Then with golden harps we'll sing,
"Glory, glory,to our King!"
Hallelujah! hallelujah! Hallelujah! Amen!
