Hark! A Thrilling Voice Is Sounding!
Hark! a thrilling voice is sounding
"Christ is near," we hear it say
"Cast away the works of darkness
All you children of the day!"
Wakened by the solemn warning
From earth's bondage let us rise
Christ, our sun, all sloth dispelling
Shines upon the morning skies
See the Lamb, so long expected
Come with pardon down from heav'n
Let us haste, with tears of sorrow
One and all, to be forgiv'n
So, when next he comes in glory
And the world is wrapped in fear
He will shield us with his mercy
And with words of love draw near
Honor, glory, might, and blessing
To the Father and the Son
With the everlasting Spirit
While unending ages run!
"Christ is near," we hear it say
"Cast away the works of darkness
All you children of the day!"
Wakened by the solemn warning
From earth's bondage let us rise
Christ, our sun, all sloth dispelling
Shines upon the morning skies
See the Lamb, so long expected
Come with pardon down from heav'n
Let us haste, with tears of sorrow
One and all, to be forgiv'n
So, when next he comes in glory
And the world is wrapped in fear
He will shield us with his mercy
And with words of love draw near
Honor, glory, might, and blessing
To the Father and the Son
With the everlasting Spirit
While unending ages run!
