Ascribed to Mrs. Vokes, 1816
Soon may the last glad song arise Through all the millions of the skies; That song of triumph which records That all the earth is now the Lord's. | Let thrones and powers and kingdoms be Obedient, mighty God, to thee; And over land and stream and main Wave thou the scepter of thy reign. | O that the anthem now might swell, And host to host the triumph tell, That not one rebel heart remains, But over all the Savior reigns! | |
