Psalm of Victory

H. MAYER
SING, all ye saints, and shout aloud in gladness. Down this drear world let mighty echoes ring. Let not a single note of doubt or sadness Herald the coming of the King.
O, waiting ones, put on your rich apparel; The wedding robe the Master did prepare; And fill your lamps with oil from off the altar, And go with joy to greet the Lord and Heir.
He comes to take his own blood-bought possession. The earth is cleft beneath his conquering tread; And at his call the dead rise up to greet him, And place the crown of victory on his head.
Be not thou downcast, O my soul, disquiet! Let not thy tongue just now refuse to sing; But “wash thee,” and put on the linen raiment Provided for the marriage by the King.
