Ten Thousand Times Ten Thousand

Triumphant alleluias fill earth and sea and sky, as countless voices join the song and worship God on high. 2 O day, for which creation and all its tribes were made! O joy, for all its former grief a thousandfold repaid! The armies of the ransomed have fought with death and sin: fling open wide the mighty gates to let the victors in! 3 Bring near your great salvation, O Lord, return again. to gather all your chosen flock-- then take your power and reign! Appear, Desire of Nations; your exiles long for home; show in the heavens your promised sign, then, Prince and Savior, come!
