[Verse 1]
GGod is Cworking his Dpurpose Gout,
As Cyear AmsuccGeeds Dto Gyear,
God is DworB7king his EmpurAmpose B7out,
And the Emtime is draA7wing Dnear;
Nearer and nearer Gdraws the time,
The Ctime that shall AmsureE7ly Ambe,
DWhen the Gearth shall be filled with the E7glory of AmGod
CAs the Gwaters cover D7the Gsea.
[Verse 2]
GFrom utmost Ceast to Dutmost Gwest,
WherCevAmer Gfeet Dhave Gtrod,
By the mouth of DmaB7ny EmmesAmsenB7gers
Rings Emout the voice A7of DGod,
Listen to me, you Gcontinents,
You Cislands Amlook E7to Amme,
DThat the Gearth may be filled with the E7glory of AmGod
CAs the Gwaters cover D7the Gsea.
[Verse 3]
GWe shall Cmarch in the Dstrength of GGod,
With the Cbanner Amof GChrist DunGfurled,
That the light of the DgloB7rious EmgosAmpel of B7truth
May Emshine throughout A7the Dworld;
We shall fight with Gsorrow and sin,
To Cset their AmcapE7tives Amfree,
DThat the Gearth may be filled with the E7glory of AmGod
CAs the Gwaters cover D7the Gsea.
[Verse 4]
GAll we can Cdo is Dnothing Gworth
UnCless AmGod Gblesses Dthe Gdeed;
Vainly we Dhope B7for the EmharAmvestB7tide
Till EmGod gives life to A7the Dseed;
nearer and nearer Gdraws the time,
The Ctime that shall AmsurE7ely Ambe,
DWhen the Gearth shall be filled with the E7glory of AmGod
CAs the Gwaters cover D7the Gsea.
