Jubilee of the World. 7s.

Montgomery.

1. HARK! the song of jubilee!
Loud as mighty thunders roar,
Or the fulness of the sea
When it breaks upon the shore:
Hallelujah! for the Lord
God omnipotent shall reign;
Hallelujah! let the word
Echo round the earth and main.

2. Hallelujah! hark! the sound,
From the depth unto the skies,
Wakes — above, beneath, around —
All creation's harmonies!
See Jehovah's banner furled,
Sheathed his sword: he speaks: 'tis done;
And the kingdoms of this world
Are the kingdom of his Son.

3. He shall reign from pole to pole
With illimitable sway:
He shall reign, when, like a scroll,
Yonder heavens have passed away.
Then the end: beneath his rod
Man's last enemy shall fall;
Hallelujah! Christ in God,
God in Christ, is all in all.
