Lyrics from A Collection of Sacred Hymns for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Europe, 1840

1. The happy day has rolled on,
The glorious period now has come;
The angel sure has come again
To introduce Messiah's reign.

2. The Gospel trump again is heard,
The truth from darkness has appeared;
The lands which long in darkness lay
Have now beheld a glorious day.

3. The day by prophets long foretold,
The day which Abraham did behold,
The day that saints desired long,
When God his strange work would perform.

4. The day when saints again should hear
The voice of Jesus in their ear,
And angels who above do reign
Come down to converse hold with men.

Hymn 234
L.M.
1. The happy day has rolled on,
The glorious period now has come;
The angel sure has come again
To introduce Messiah's reign.

2. The Gospel trump again is heard,
The truth from darkness has appeared;
The lands which long in darkness lay
Have now beheld a glorious day.

3. The day by prophets long foretold,
The day which Abraham did behold,
The day that saints desired long,
When God his strange work would perform.

4. The day when saints again should hear
The voice of Jesus in their ear,
And angels who above do reign
Come down to converse hold with men.
