Hark the Glad Sound

Today's Advent hymn is "Hark the Glad Sound" by Philip Doddridge.

"Hark the Glad Sound"

Hark the glad soung!  The Savior comes,
The Savior promised long;
Let every heart prepage a throne
And every voice a song.

He comes the pris'ners to release,
In Satan's bondage held.
The gates of brass before Him burst,
The iron fetters yield.

He comes the broken heart to bind,
The bleeding soul to cure,
And with the treasures of His grace
To enrich the humble poor.

Our glad hosannas, Prince of Peace,
Thy welcome shall proclaim,
And heav'n's eternal arches ring
With Thy beloved name.


This is a fun organ arrangement of the hymn: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GxACjvrujo
