What ringing of a thousand harps bespeaks the triumph nigh! O day, for which creation and all its tribes were made! O joy, for all its former woes a thousand fold repaid! 3 O then, what raptured greetings on Canaan's happy shore, what knitting severed friendships up, where partings are no more! Then eyes with joy shall sparkle that brimmed with tears of late, orphans no longer fatherless, nor widows desolate. 4 Bring near thy great salvation, thou Lamb for sinners slain; fill up the roll of thine elect, then take thy power and reign: appear, Desire of nations, thine exiles long for home; show in the heav'n thy promised sign; thou Prince and Savior, come!

In sorrow He's my comfort, in trouble He's my stay, He tells me ev'ry care on Him to roll; He's the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star, He's the greatest of ten thousand to my soul. 2 He all my grief has taken and all my sorrows borne, In temptation He's my strong and mighty tow'r; I have all for Him forsaken and all my idols torn From my heart, and now He keeps me by His pow'r. Tho' all the world forsake me and Satan tempt me sore, Thru Jesus I shall safely reach the goal; He's the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star, He's the greatest of ten thousand to my soul. 3 He will never, never leave me nor yet forsake me here, While I live by faith and do His blessed will; A wall of fire about me, I've nothing now to fear- With His manna He my hungry soul shall fill. Then sweeping up to glory I'll see His blessed face, Where rivers of delight shall ever roll; He's the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star, He's the greatest of ten thousand to my soul.
