1. A multitude is gathering

from ev’ry tribe and nation,

Collected by the Christ and his

anointed congregation.

God’s Kingdom has been brought to birth;

His will shall soon be done on earth.

This hope is a gift of priceless worth,

giving joy and consolation.

2. We hail the Christ, our reigning King,

with sounds of jubilation.

This Prince of Peace shall do God’s will

and bring about salvation.

We see the joys that lie ahead:

An earth released from fear and dread,

The grand resurrection of the dead.

What a time for exultation!
