Lyrics
- Note: Sopranos and tenors sometimes sing Hosanna
1. Hark! hark to the swell of that rapturous song,
Ascending to heaven from yon mighty throng!
With shouts of hosanna, the children of Zion
Extol their Deliv'rer from bondage and woe;
With shouts of hosanna, the children of Zion
Extol their Deliv'rer from bondage and woe;
The mountains and hills, tow'ring high to the heavens,
Re-echo the song from the valley below.
2. Give thanks to Jehovah, our strength and our shield,
The foes of His kingdom will soon have to yield;
While Zion, with shouts of hosanna, will praise Him,
And labor with diligence morning and night;
While Zion, with shouts of hosanna, will praise Him,
And labor with diligence morning and night,
To build up the kingdom and spread the glad tidings:
That God will soon reign on the earth in His might.
