The saints shall hear it in their sleep,
And answer from the ground.

8 Then upward as they fly,

That resurrection-word

Shall be their shout of victory,
For ever with the Lord!"

9 That resurrection-word,

That shout of victory,

Once more,-"For ever with the Lord!"
Amen so let it be!

Tune 151.

TEN thousand times ten thousand,
In sparkling raiment bright,
The armies of the ransomed saints
Throng up the steeps of light;
'Tis finished, all is finished,

Their fight with death and sin;
Fling open wide the golden gates,
And let the victors in.

2 What rush of hallelujahs
Fills all the earth and sky;
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 Oh, 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.

[blocks in formation]

THIS is not my place of resting,
Mine's a city yet to come;
Onward to it I am hasting,
On to my eternal home.

2 In it all is light and glory;

O'er it shines a nightless day;
Every trace of sin's sad story,

Tune 16.

All the curse, hath passed away.

3 There the Lamb, our shepherd, leads us,
By the streams of life along,
On the freshest pastures feeds us,
Turns our sighing into song.

4 Soon we pass the desert dreary,
Soon we bid farewell to pain;
Never more are sad or weary,
Never, never, sin again.

[blocks in formation]

SING hallelujah, praise the Lord,
Sing with a cheerful voice;
Exalt our God with one accord,

And in his name rejoice:

Tune 159.

Ne'er cease to sing, thou ransomed host,
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost;
Until in realms of endless light

Your praises shall unite.

2 There we to all eternity

Shall join the angelic lays,
And sing in perfect harmony

To God our Saviour's praise;
He hath redeemed us by his blood,
And made us kings and priests to God;
For us, for us, the Lamb was slain :
the Lord!

Praise

Amen.
