and in the moon, and in the stars;
and upon the earth distress of nations,
with perplexity; the sea and the waves
roaring;

H. de Fluiter (8.68.66.6. with refrain) Verses/Key/v3/Ab
HAIL HIM THE KING OF GLORY
1.
Tell it to every kindred and nation,
Tell it far and near;
Earth’s darkest night will fade with the dawning,
Jesus will soon appear.
Refrain
Hail Him the King of glory,
Once the Lamb for sinners slain;
Tell, tell the wondrous story,
“Jesus comes to reign.”
2.
Nations again in strife and commotion,
Warnings by the way;
Signs in the heavens, unerring omens,
Herald the glorious day.
Refrain
3.
Children of God look up with rejoicing;
Shout and sing His praise;
Blessèd are they who, waiting and watching,
Look for the dawning rays.
Refrain
