Hark, the glad sound! the Saviour comes, The Saviour promised long: Let every heart prepare a throne, And every voice a song.
He comes, the prisoners to release In Satan's bondage held; The gates of brass before him burst, The iron fetters yield.
He comes, from the thick films of vice To clear the mental ray, And on the eye-balls of the blind To pour celestial day.
