Representative lyrics
English (Original Language)
1. Hail, hail, hail, all hail, The gospel is restored, And Israel comes from lands afar To love and serve the Lord. The ancient prophets have foretold, Of these the latter days, They saw the temples where we meet to offer endless praise. Praise God the Father, Praise God the Father.
2. Praise, praise, praise, the Lord, He speaks and night is gone, The glory of his word shines forth, To lead us on and on. The desert blossoms as the rose, His goodness to proclaim, His will again has been revealed, All honor to his name. Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord.
