1031
Come, Hear the Word the Lord Has Spoken
1. Come, hear the word the Lord has spoken,
Revealed anew in latter days.
The heav’ns again to us are open;
Let all rejoice and sing His praise!
2. The Savior will redeem His people,
And Satan’s work will be undone.
The truths of God to earth from heaven
Will all be gathered into one.
3. The Lord’s great day is surely coming.
We long to see that blessed day
When Christ will reign with peace and justice
And He will wipe all tears away.
4. The mountains then will shout, rejoicing,
For Christ will reign on earth as King!
His holy word will stand forever.
Let ev’ry soul give thanks and sing!
This hymn, written by a Dutch Latter-day Saint, rejoices in the Restoration of the gospel and the Second Coming of the Savior, when He will “gather together in one all things” (Ephesians 1:10).
