1  Hark! Ten thousand heav'nly voices

    Sound the note of praise above;

    Jesus reigns and heav'n rejoices,

    Jesus reigns, the God of love.

    See, He sits on yonder throne;

    Jesus rules the world alone.

 2  Sing how Jesus came from heaven,

    How He bore the cross below,

    How all power to Him is given,

    How He reigns in glory now.

    'Tis a great and endless theme —

    Oh, 'tis sweet to sing of Him.

 3  Jesus, hail! Thy glory brightens

    All above and gives it worth;

    Lord of life, Thy smile enlightens,

    Cheers, and charms Thy saints on earth.

    When we think of love like Thine,

    Lord, we own it love divine.

 4  King of glory, reign forever!

    Thine an everlasting crown.

    Nothing from Thy love shall sever

    Those whom Thou hast made Thine own:

    Happy objects of Thy grace,

    Destined to behold Thy face.

 5  Savior, hasten Thine appearing:

    Bring, oh, bring the glorious day,

    When, the awful summons hearing,

    Heav'n and earth shall pass away.

    Then with raptured hearts we'll sing,

    "Glory, glory to our King!"
