The Hymnal and Order of Service ‎#379

379. Hasten, Lord, the Glorious Time

1 Hasten, Lord, the glorious time,
When beneath Messiah's sway
Ev'ry nation, ev'ry clime,
Shall the gospel call obey.

2 Mightiest kings His pow'r shall own,
Heathen tribes His Name adore;
Satan and his host, o'erthrown,
Bound in chains, shall hurt no more.

3 Then shall wars and tumults cease,
Then be banished grief and pain;
Righteousness and joy and peace,
Undisturbed shall ever reign.

4 Bless we, then, our gracious Lord;
Ever praise His glorious Name;
All His mighty acts record,
All His wondrous love proclaim.

Amen.
