The Song of Jubilee

James Montgomery (1818) • English

Primary Scripture: Leviticus 25:10

Verse 1

Hark, the song of jubilee loud as mighty thunders roar, or the fullness of the sea when it breaks upon the shore; Alleluia! for the Lord God omnipotent shall reign! Alleluia! let the word sound from city, hill, and plain.

Verse 2

Alleluia! hark, the sound from the depths unto the skies, wakes above, beneath, around all creation's harmonies; see the Victor's banner furled; sheathed his sword, he speak--"Tis done!"-- and the kingdoms of this world are the kingdom of his Son.

Verse 3

He shall reign from pole to pole with illimitable sway; he shall reign when, like a scroll, yonder heav'ns have passed away; then the end: beneath his rod his last enemy shall fall; Alleuia! Christ in God, God in Christ, is all in all.
