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.
