Lo, the glory! Lo, the splendor!
Heaven’s Kingdom manifest!
And its glorious King, our Master,
Is by God’s appointment blest.
Once in flesh He came so lowly,
Hated and despised by man;
Now He comes again in glory
To fulfill the Kingdom plan.
Going to receive the Kingdom
From His God, the Ancient of Days,
Now He cometh with the Kingdom
And its glorious, ruling rays.
He’s “the Stone”
which breaks the nations
Into pieces lowliest,
Which “a mountain great” becometh
As the Kingdom manifest.
Lo, the earth, all lands
and kingdoms,
By the Lord and Christ possessed;
Earth beneath their sovereign ruling
Will be full of peace and rest.
No more war and no more hatred
’Twixt the nations will there be;
But God’s knowledge
shall suffuse them
As the waters fill the sea.
All the Christian overcomers
Shall with Christ in glory reign,
And the remnant saved of Israel
Then God’s priesthood shall obtain.
As God’s people shall the nations
’Neath their rule and teaching be,
And a glorious restoration
All creation then shall see.
Satan will be bound and banished;
From his rule will earth be freed;
With Christ’s sovereign
reign and headship
Earth will then be blessed indeed.
All to Christ will then be subject,
To His pow’r and to His will;
As the Head and Center glorious,
He God’s purpose will fulfill.
