Hark! Ten Thousand Voices

lyricist: Thomas Kelly, 1806
Composer: John Dykes, 1857

Hark! ten thou­sand voic­es sound­ing

Far and wide through­out the sky;

’Tis the voice of joy ab­ound­ing

Jesus lives no more to die.

Jesus lives

His con­flict ov­er

Lives to claim His great re­ward;

Angels round the Vic­tor hov­er

Crowding to be­hold their Lord.

Yonder throne for Him erect­ed

Now be­comes the Vic­tor’s seat;

Lo

the Man on earth re­ject­ed

Angels wor­ship at His feet!

All the pow­ers of Heav’n ad­ore Him

All ob­ey His sov­er­eign Word;

Day and night they cry be­fore Him

Holy

ho­ly

ho­ly Lord!
