Hark, hark! the gospel trumpet sounds,
Thro’ the wide earth the echo bounds,
Pardon and peace by Jesu’s blood;
Sinners are reconcil’d to God,
And brought into the heavenly road
By grace divine.
Come, sinners, hear the joyful news,
Nor longer dare the grace refuse;
Mercy and justice here combine,
Goodness and truth harmonious join,
While boundless love in ev’ry line,
Invites you near.
Ye saints in glory, strike the lyre,
Ye mortals. catch the sacred fire;
Let both the Saviour’s love proclaim,
And spread abroad his matchless fame,
For ever worthy is the Lamb
Of endless praise.
