The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book ‎#1400a

1400a. Sound an alarm, all ye watchmen, for the day of the Lord is near

1 Sound an alarm, all ye watchmen, for the day of the Lord is near;
Blow ye the trumpet, the trumpet in Zion, sound an alarm.
The day of the Lord is nigh at hand,
The day of the Lord is nigh at hand,
The day of the Lord is nigh at hand.
Awake! awake! awake! awake!
Blow ye the trumpet in Zion;
Awake! awake! awake! awake!
Blow ye the trumpet, and sound an alarm.
Rend your hearts and not your garments,
Turn unto the Lord.
Waken, waken, waken, waken!
Waken ye and sound an alarm.
