Hark, the glad sound-- the Saviour The Saviour promised long; Let every heart exult with joy comes!, And every voice be song !
2. He comes ! the prisoners to release, In Satan's bondage held ; The gates of brass before Him burst, The iron fetters yield.
3. He comes ! the broken hearts to bind, The bleeding souls to cure ; And with the treasures of His grace To enrich the humble poor.
4. Our glad hosannas,Prince of Peace ! Thy welcome shall proclaim; And heaven's exalted arches ring With Thy most honoured name.
