The Lord in glory shall descend With angels in His train; The griefs and wrongs of earth shall end, When He begins His reign. Then let His people sing, And praise the heav’nly King, That griefs and wrongs of earth shall end, When He begins His reign. Refrain When He begins His reign, When He begins His reign, When He begins His reign, The griefs and wrongs of earth shall end. The trumpet of the Lord shall sound, And time shall be no more; Then songs of gladness shall abound, That griefs of time are o’er. His saints shall join the praise, The angel voices raise, And fill the universe with song, That griefs of time are o’er. Refrain What tho’ the way be rough and hard, No cross will we deplore, Since there awaits a rich reward On yonder blessèd shore. All tears shall cease to flow, We shall no sorrow know, When Jesus crowns the faithful on That bright eternal shore. Refrain
