From all the dark places of earth’s heathen races
O see how the thick shadows fly
The voice of salvation awakes every nation
Come over and help us, they cry
The sunlight is glancing o’er armies advancing
To conquer the kingdoms of sin
Our Lord shall possess them, his presence shall bless them
His beauty shall enter them in
The kingdom is coming, O tell ye the story
God’s banner exalted shall be
The earth shall be full of His knowledge and glory
As waters that cover the sea
With shouting and singing, and jubilant ringing
Their arms of rebellion cast down
At last every nation the Lord of salvation
Their king and Redeemer shall crown
The kingdom is coming, O tell ye the story
God’s banner exalted shall be
The earth shall be full of His knowledge and glory
As waters that cover the sea
With shouting and singing, and jubilant ringing
Their arms of rebellion cast down
At last every nation the Lord of salvation
Their king and Redeemer shall crown
The kingdom is coming, O tell ye the story
God’s banner exalted shall be
The earth shall be full of His knowledge and glory
As waters that cover the sea
The kingdom is coming, O tell ye the story
God’s banner exalted shall be
The earth shall be full of His knowledge and glory
As waters that cover the sea
