Judgment Brought Forth Unto Victory

Representative Text

1 Lo! the man of God appointed,
Judge of quick and judge of dead,
Mid his Father's throne exalted,
High in glory lifts hthe head.
Shout triumphant, sing rejoicing, shout triumphant,
'Tis the Son, the Son of Man.

2 He's the bringer forth of judgment,
Judgment bas'd on truth divine:
See, before the bar arraigned,
Death and heal their pow'rs resign.
Ransom'd thousands, happy myriads, rising nations,
Sound th' Almighty Saviour's name.

3 Where is sin, and death, and Satan?
Triumph they? or triumphs God?
Sin, and death, and hell, subdued,
Feel the Monarch's iron rod.
Whilst the nature, human nature, Christ assumed,
Is by him redeem'd, and sav'd.

4 Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Glory be to God Most High:
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Worlds below and worlds on high
Shout Redemption! cry Salvation ! praise the Saviour!
Praise, O praise ye Him— Amen.
