Man Hath Not Heard Nor Understood
Lyrics
- Poet: Mary Page
1. Man hath not heard nor understood
Nor can his heart imagine
What God has for his saints prepared
When all the earth shall be restored
With glory great as Eden.
2. Then shall this glorious song be sung
By every tongue and kindred,
Glory and honor doth belong
Unto our God and to the Lamb
Who by his blood redeemed us.
3. And brought his chosen people home
Frome very land and nation
The tribes of Israel who have roamed
Unto their promised lands have come
In Zion and Jerusalem.
4. Mount Zion's walls and towers too
Appear in greatest grandeur,
Jerusalem's Jehovah's throne,
Ephraim and Israel now are one
All speaking a pure language.
5. Then we shall reign upon the earth,
With kingly honor shining,
As priests and kings we will rejoice,
While all the nations lift their voice
To praise the God of Zion.
6. For all the kingdoms of this world
Shall be our Lord and Savior's,
And we his beauty will behold,
New scenes of glory will unfold,
We shall rejoice forever.
7. Then death shall lose its awful sting,
And earth shall cease her groaning,
She shall not then be cursed with sin,
While all the nations honor bring
Into the city Zion.
8. Then we will reign a thousand years
In happiness terrestrial;
And with our Savior be joint heirs,
For glories great shall then be ours,
Yea, glory that's celestial.
