Hasten, Lord, the glorious time

Harriet Auber (1829) • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 46:9-10

Verse 1

Hasten, Lord, the glorious time, When beneath Messiah's sway, Every nation, every clime, Shall the gospel call obey.

Verse 2

Mightiest kings His power shall own; Heathen tribes His name adore. Satan and His host o'erthrown, Bound in chains, shall hurt no more.

Verse 3

Then shall wars and tumults cease, Then be banished grief and pain; Righteousness and joy and peace, Undisturbed, shall ever reign.

Verse 4

Bless we, then, our gracious Lord; Ever praise His glorious name; All His mighty acts record, All His wondrous love proclaim. Amen.
