Glory, Honor and Salvation

Fa-So-La-La

We sang this lovely, lovely hymn in church Wednesday night, and as it is not very common (but definitely deserves to be) I thought I would share it:


Hark! the Jubilee Is Sounding

Hark! the jubilee is sounding,
Oh, the joyful news is come;
Free salvation is proclaimed
In and through God's holy Son.
Now we have complete redemption
Through the meek and lowly Lamb;
Glory, honor, and salvation,
Christ the Lord is come to reign!

Now let each one cease from wand'ring,
Come and follow Christ the Way,
We shall all receive a blessing,
If from Him we do not stray.
Golden moments we've neglected,
Yet the Lord forgives again;
Glory, honor, and salvation,
Christ the Lord is come to reign!

Come, let us run our race with patience,
Looking unto Christ the Way,
Who doth live and reign forever
With His Father and our God.
He is worthy to be praised,
He is our exalted King;
Glory, honor, and salvation,
Christ the Lord is come to reign!

Come, dear children, praise your Jesus,
Praise Him, praise Him evermore;
May His great love now constrain us,
So His great name we'll adore.
Oh, then let us join together,
His wondrous name to proclaim;
Glory, honor, and salvation,
Christ the Lord is come to reign!



I don't think I can add anything to that but a hearty 'Amen!'
