Hark! ten thou­sand voices cry­ing,
Lamb of God! with one ac­cord;
Thousand, thou­sand saints re­ply­ing,
Wake at once the ec­ho­ing chord.

Praise the Lamb, the cho­rus wak­ing,
All in Hea­ven to­ge­ther throng;
Loud and far each tongue par­tak­ing
Rolls around the end­less song.

Grateful in­cense this, as­cend­ing
Ever to the Fa­ther’s throne:
Every knee to Je­sus bend­ing,
All in mind in Hea­ven is one.

All the Fa­ther’s coun­sels claim­ing
Equal hon­ors to the Son,
All the Son’s ef­ful­gence beam­ing,
Makes the Fa­ther’s glo­ry known.

By the Spi­rit all per­vad­ing,
Hosts un­num­bered round the Lamb,
Crowned with light and joy un­fad­ing,
Hail Him as the great I AM.

Joyful now the new cre­ation
Rests in un­dis­turbed re­pose,
Blest in Je­sus’ full sal­va­tion,
Sorrow now nor thrall­dom knows.

Hark! the hea­ven­ly notes again!
Loudly swells the song of praise;
Through cre­ation’s vault, Amen!
Amen! re­spons­ive joy doth raise.
