433 Ten Thousand Times Ten Thousand
[1]
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 fight with death and sin.
Fling open wide the golden gates
And let the victors in.

What rush of hallelujahs
Fills all the earth and sky!
The ringing of a thousand harps
Proclaims the triumph high.
O day for which creation
And all its tribes were made!
O joy for all its former woes
A thousand-fold repaid!

Fills all the earth and sky!
The ringing of a thousand harps
Proclaims the triumph high.
O day for which creation
And all its tribes were made!
O joy for all its former woes
A thousand-fold repaid!

O then what raptured greetings
On Canaan s happy shore!
What knitting severed friendship where
Death partings are no more!
Then eyes with joy shall sparkle
That brimmed with tears of late;
Orphans no longer fatherless
Nor widows desolate.

Bring near Thy great salvation
Thou Lamb for sinners slain
Fill up the roll of Thine elect
Then take Thy power and reign!
Appear Desire of nations
Thine exiles long for home;
Show in the heavens Thy promised sign;
Thou Prince and Savior come!
