lyrics

Ten Thousand Times Ten Thousand

Ten thousand times ten thousand
In sparkling raiment bright
The armies of the ransomed saints
throng up the steeps of light

Tis finished all is finished
Their fine with death and sin
Fling open wide the golden gates
And let the victors in

What rush of alleluias
Fills all the Earth and sky
What ringing of a thousand harps
Bespeaks the triumph nigh

O day for which creation
And all its tribes were made
O joy for all it’s former woes
A thousand fold repaid

O then what raptured greetings
On kingdom’s happy shore
What knitting severed friendships up
Where partings are no more

Than eyes with joy shall sparkle
Than brimmed with tears of late
Orphans no longer fatherless
Nor widows desolate
