Composer: | Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdi |
1 Hark! the song of jubilee,
Loud as mighty thunders roar,
Or the fullness 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;
Hallelujah! let the word
Echo round the earth and main.
2 Hallelujah! hark, the sound,
From the depths 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 kingdoms of His Son;
And the kingdoms of this world
Are the kingdoms of His Son.
3 He shall reign from pole to pole
With illimitable sway;
He shall reign when like a scroll
Yonder heav'ns 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;
Hallelujah! Christ in God,
God in Christ, is all in all.
Amen.
