1. Lift up the trumpet, O loud let it ring

1 Lift up the trumpet, O loud let it ring!
Jesus is coming again!
Cheer up, ye pilgrims, be joyful and sing,
Jesus is coming again!

Refrain:
Coming again, Coming again,
Jesus is coming again!

2 Echo it, hilltops, proclaim it, ye plains,
Jesus is coming again!
Coming in glory, the lamb that was slain,
Jesus is coming again! [Refrain]

3 Sound it, old ocean, in thy mighty wave,
Jesus is coming again!
Break on the sands of the shores that ye lave,
Jesus is coming again! [Refrain]

4 Heavings of earth, tell the vast, wond'ring throng,
Jesus is coming again!
Tempest and whirlwinds the anthems prolong.
Jesus is coming again! [Refrain]

5 Nations are angry,— by this we do know,
Jesus is coming again!
Knowledge increases; men run to and fro.
Jesus is coming again! [Refrain]
Jesus is coming again!
