The marriage feast is waiting; The gates wide open stand. Arise, O heirs of glory; The bridegroom is at hand. 3 Our hope and expectation, O Jesus, now appear; arise, O Sun so longed for, o'er this benighted sphere.

The law and prophets there have place, two chosen witnesses of grace; the Father's voice from out the cloud proclaims his only Son aloud. 4. With shining face and bright array, Christ deigns to manifest that day what glory shall be theirs above who joy in God with perfect love. 5.

We answer all in joy your call, we follow to the wedding hall." 3 Now let all the heav'ns adore you, let saints and angels sing before you with harp and cymbal's clearest tone. Of one pearl each shining portal, where, joining with the choir immortal, we gather round your radiant throne. No eye has seen that light, no ear the echoed might of your glory; yet there shall we in your vict'ry sing shouts of praise eternally!
