and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand
times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;

TEN THOUSAND TIMES TEN THOUSAND
1.
Ten thousand times ten thousand,
In sparkling raiment bright,
The armies of the ransomed saints-
Throng up the steeps of light.
’Tis finished, all is finished,
Their fight with death and sin.
Fling open wide the golden gates,
And let the victors in.
2.
What rush of alleluias-
Fills all the earth and sky!
The ringing of a thousand harps-
Proclaims the triumph high!
O day, for which creation-
And all its tribes were made!
O joy, for all its former woes-
A thousandfold repaid!
3.
O then what raptured greetings-
On Canaan's happy shore!
What knitting severed friendships up,
Where partings are no more!
Then eyes with joy shall sparkle,
That brimmed with tears of late;
Orphans no longer fatherless,
Nor widows desolate.
4.
Bring near Thy great salvation,
Thou Lamb for sinners slain;
Fill up the roll of Thine elect,
Then take Thy power, and reign!
Appear, Desire of nations,
Thine exiles long for home;
Show in the heavens Thy promised sign;
Thou Prince and Saviour, come!
A blessèd Seventh Day Sabbath to all believers.
In the Son’s Name - For the Father’s glory.
