Refrain: One thousand years of gladness, One thousand years of peace, Shall come when Jesus reigns on earth And bids all strife to cease; One thousand years of blessing, One thousand years of love, Will make this world resplendent With glory from above. 2 Then Satan shall be bound with chains And in the pit be thrown, Where, held a captive he no more The nations can deceive; While those who have been true to Christ And suffering for Him known, The resurrection call shall hear And all their graves shall leave. [Refrain] 3 Oh! blessèd are the faithful Who shall then be first to rise, For over them the second death No power can obtain; Their Savior’s face they shall behold With glad, adoring eyes, And sharing in His kingdom, they One thousand years shall reign.
