<p>Arise, the kingdom is at hand,<br>
The King is drawing nigh;<br>
Arise with joy, thou faithful band,<br>
To meet the Lord most high!<br>
Look up, ye souls, weighed down with care,<br>
The Sovereign is not far;<br>
Look up, faint hearts, from your despair,<br>
Behold the Morning Star!</p>
<p>Look up, ye drooping hearts, today,<br>
The King is very near;<br>
O cast your griefs and fears away,<br>
For, lo, your help is here!<br>
Hope on, ye broken hearts, at last<br>
The King comes in His might;<br>
He loved us in the ages past<br>
When we lay wrapped in night.</p>
<p>O rich the gifts Thou bringest us,<br>
Thyself made poor and weak;<br>
O love beyond compare that thus<br>
Can foes and sinners seek!<br>
For this we raise a gladsome voice<br>
On high to Thee alone,<br>
And evermore with thanks rejoice<br>
Before Thy glorious throne.</p>
