|
<p>Behold a host, arrayed in white,<br>
|
|
Like thousand snow clad mountains bright,<br>
|
|
With palms they stand. Who is this band<br>
|
|
Before the throne of light?<br>
|
|
Lo, these are they of glorious fame<br>
|
|
Who from the great affliction came<br>
|
|
And in the flood of Jesus’ blood<br>
|
|
Are cleansed from guilt and blame.<br>
|
|
Now gathered in the holy place<br>
|
|
Their voices they in worship raise,<br>
|
|
Their anthems swell where God doth dwell,<br>
|
|
Mid angels’ song of praise.</p>
|
|
<p>Despised and scorned, they sojourned here;<br>
|
|
But now, how glorious they appear!<br>
|
|
Those martyrs stand a priestly band,<br>
|
|
God’s throne forever near.<br>
|
|
So oft, in troubled days gone by,<br>
|
|
In anguish they would weep and sigh.<br>
|
|
At home above the God of Love<br>
|
|
For aye their tears shall dry.<br>
|
|
They now enjoy their Sabbath rest,<br>
|
|
The paschal banquet of the blest;<br>
|
|
The Lamb, their Lord, at festal board<br>
|
|
Himself is Host and Guest.</p>
|
|
<p>Then hail, ye mighty legions, yea,<br>
|
|
All hail! Now safe and blest for aye,<br>
|
|
And praise the Lord, Who with His Word<br>
|
|
Sustained you on the way.<br>
|
|
Ye did the joys of earth disdain,<br>
|
|
Ye toiled and sowed in tears and pain.<br>
|
|
Farewell, now bring your sheaves and sing<br>
|
|
Salvation’s glad refrain.<br>
|
|
Swing high your palms, lift up your song,<br>
|
|
Yea, make it myriad voices strong.<br>
|
|
Eternally shall praise to Thee,<br>
|
|
God, and the Lamb belong.</p>
