##(Verse 1)
Hark, the glad sound! the Savior comes! The Sa-vior promised long; Let every heart prepare a throne, And every voice a song.

##(Verse 2)
On Him the Spirit, largely poured, Exertsits sacred Fire; Wisdom and might, and zeal and love, His holy Breast inspire.

##(Verse 3)
He comes the pris'ners to release, In Sa-tan's bondage held; The gates of brass before Him burst, The iron fetters yield.

##(Verse 4)
He comes from thickest films of vice To clearthe mental ray, And on the eyeballs of the blind To pour celestial day.

##(Verse 5)
He comes the broken heart to bind, The bleed-ing soul to cure; And with the treasures of His grace T'enrich the humble poor.

##(Verse 6)
His silver trumpets publish loud
The jub'lee of the Lord
Our debts are all remitted now
Our heritage restored.

##(Verse 7)
Our glad hosannas, Prince of Peace,
Thy welcome shall proclaim;
And Heav'n's eternal arches ring
With Thy belovèd name.
