Hark! the Glad Sound
Author: Philip Doddridge (1735)
Hark the glad sound! The Savior comes,
The Savior promised long;
The Savior promised long;
Let ev’ry heart prepare a throne
And ev’ry voice a song.
And ev’ry voice a song.
He comes the pris’ners to release,
In Satan’s bondage held.
In Satan’s bondage held.
The gates of brass before Him burst,
The iron fetters yield.
The iron fetters yield.
He comes the broken heart to bind,
The bleeding soul to cure,
The bleeding soul to cure,
And with the treasures of His grace
To enrich the humble poor.
To enrich the humble poor.
Our glad hosannas, Prince of Peace,
Thy welcome shall proclaim,
Thy welcome shall proclaim,
And heav’n’s eternal arches ring
With Thy beloved name.
With Thy beloved name.
