|
<p>Hark! the voice eternal, robed in majesty,<br>
|
|
Caging into being earth and sea and sky<br>
|
|
Hark! in countless numbers all the angel throng<br>
|
|
Hail creation’s morning with one burst of song.<br>
|
|
High in regal glory, ’mid eternal light,<br>
|
|
Reign, O King immortal, holy, infinite.</p>
|
|
<p>Bright the world and glorious, calm both earth and sea,<br>
|
|
Noble in its grandeur stood man’s purity;<br>
|
|
Came the great transgression, came the saddening fall,<br>
|
|
Death and desolation breathing over all.<br>
|
|
Still in regal glory, ’mid eternal light,<br>
|
|
Reigned the King immortal, holy, infinite.</p>
|
|
<p>Long the nations waited, through the troubled night,<br>
|
|
Looking, longing, yearning, for the promised light.<br>
|
|
Prophets saw the morning breaking far away,<br>
|
|
Minstrels sang the splendor of that opening day;<br>
|
|
Whilst in regal glory, ’mid eternal light,<br>
|
|
Reigned the King immortal, holy, infinite.</p>
|
|
<p>Brightly dawned the advent of the newborn King,<br>
|
|
Joyously the watchers heard the angels sing.<br>
|
|
Sadly closed the evening of His hallowed life,<br>
|
|
As the noontide darkness veiled the last dread strife<br>
|
|
Lo! again in glory, ’mid eternal light,<br>
|
|
Reigns the King immortal, holy, infinite.</p>
|
|
<p>Lo! again He cometh, robed in clouds of fight,<br>
|
|
As the Judge eternal, armed with power and might.<br>
|
|
Nations to His footstool gathered then shall be;<br>
|
|
Earth shall yield her treasures, and her dead, the sea.<br>
|
|
Till the trumpet soundeth, ’mid eternal light<br>
|
|
Reign, thou King immortal, holy, infinite.</p>
|
|
<p>Jesus! Lord and Master, Prophet, Priest, and King,<br>
|
|
To thy feet, triumphant, hallowed praise we bring.<br>
|
|
Thine the pain and weeping, Thine the victory;<br>
|
|
Power, and praise, and honor, be, O Lord, to Thee.<br>
|
|
High in regal glory, ’mid eternal light,<br>
|
|
Reign, O King immortal, holy, infinite.</p>
