From Egypt Lately Come
Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9833 Refrain First Line: Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Lyrics: 1 From Egypt lately come,
Where death and darkness reign,
We seek our new, our better home,
Where we our rest shall gain.
Refrain:
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
We are on our way to God.
2 To Canaan’s sacred bound
We haste with songs of joy!
Where peace and liberty are found,
And sweets that never cloy. [Refrain]
3 Our toils and conflicts cease
On Canaan’s happy shore;
We there shall dwell in endless peace,
And never hunger more. [Refrain]
4 But hark! those distant sounds
That strike our listening ears,
They come from Canaan’s happy bounds,
Where God our king appears. [Refrain]
5 There, in celestial strains,
Enraptured myriads sing;
There love in every bosom reigns,
For God Himself is king. [Refrain]
6 We soon shall join the throng,
Their pleasures we shall share;
And sing the everlasting song,
With all the ransomed there. [Refrain]
7 How sweet the prospect is!
It cheers the pilgrim’s heart;
We’re journeying through the wilderness,
But soon shall gain our rest. [Refrain]
