The time is nigh that happy time

Hymnal: A Collection of Sacred Hymns, for the Church of the Latter Day Saints #5 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 The time is nigh that happy time, That great, expected, blessed day, When countless thousands of our race, Shall dwell with Christ and him obey. 2 The prophecies must be fulfil’d Though earth and hell should dare oppose; The stone out of the mountain cut, Though unobserved, a kingdom grows. 3 Soon shall the blended image fall, Brass, silver, iron, gold and clay; And superstition’s dreadful reign, To light and liberty give way. 4 In one sweet symphony of praise, The Jews and Gentiles will unite; And infidelity, o’ercome, Return again to endless night. 5 From east to west, from north to south, The Savior’s kingdom shall extend, And every man in every place, Shall meet a brother and a friend.

The Time is Nigh

Author: P. P. Pratt Hymnal: Latter-Day Saints Congregational Hymns #5 (1919) First Line: The time is nigh, the happy time Lyrics: 1. The time is nigh, the happy time, That great expected, blessed day, When countless thousands of our race Shall dwell with Christ, and Him obey. 2. The prophecies must be fulfilled, Though earth and hell should dare oppose; The stone out of the mountain cut, Though unobserved, a kingdom grows. 3. The blended image soon shall fall — Brass, silver, iron, gold and clay; And superstition's dreadful reign To light and liberty give way. 4. In one sweet symphony of praise, The Jews and Gentiles will unite; And infidelity o'ercome, Return again to endless night. 5. From east to west, from north to south, The Savior's kingdom shall extend, And ev'ry man in ev'ry place Shall meet a brother and a friend.
