Author: Julia Ward Howe Hymnal: The New Praiseworthy #366 (1916) First Line: Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord Refrain First Line: Glory! glory, hallelujah! Lyrics: 1 Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord;
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword;
His truth is marching on.
Glory! glory, hallelujah!
Glory! glory, hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.
2 I have seen Him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps;
They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps;
I have read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps;
His day is marching on.
Glory! glory, hallelujah!
Glory! glory, hallelujah!
His day is marching on.
3 He has sounded forth His trumpet that shall never sound retreat;
He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment seat.
O be swift, my soul, to answer Him! be jubilant, my feet!
Our God is marching on.
Glory! glory, hallelujah!
Glory! glory, hallelujah!
Our God is marching on.
4 In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea,
With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me;
As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free;
While God is marching on.
Glory! glory, hallelujah!
Glory! glory, hallelujah!
While God is marching on. Languages: English Tune Title: [Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord]
