Prayer for the Millenium

Hymnal: The Hartford Selection of Hymns from the Most Approved Authors #CCLII (1799) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: How many years has man been driv'n Lyrics: 1 How many years has man been driv'n Far off from happiness and heav'n? When wilt thou, gracious Lord, restore Thy wand'ring church, to roam no more? 2 Six thousand years are nearly past Since Adam from thy sight was cast: And ever since his fallen race, From age to age are void of grace. 3 When will the happy trump proclaim The judgement of the martyr'd lamb? When shall the captive troops be free, And keep th' eternal jubilee! 4 Hasten it, Lord, in every land, Send thou thine angels and command; "Go sound deliv'rance loudly blow, "Salvation to the saints below? 5 We want to have the day appear! The promis'd great sabbatic year, When, far from grief, and sin and hell, Israel in ceaseless peace shall dwell. 6 'Till then, we will not let thee rest, Thou still shalt hear our strong request; And this our daily pray'r shall be, Lord, sound the trump of jubilee.
