The spa­cious earth around;
When Christ, the Judge, shall come,
Thus we praise with ve­ne­ra­tion
Beginning, that no end shall know.
Above the na­tions of the earth,

The ar­mies of the sky

Conspire to raise the sound!
To call His child­ren home.
Chiefly him, the war­rior pri­mate,
Adore, and laud, and mag­ni­fy;
The spir­its of per­fect­ed saints

Salvation! O the Joyful Sound!
