My eyes have seen the glory [D] of the coming of the Lord.
[G] He is trampling of the vintage where the [A] grapes of wrath are stored.
He has loosed the fateful [D] lightning of his terrible [Bm] swift sword.
[G] His truth is [D] marching on.
Glory, glory, hallelujah.
[G] Glory, glory, [D] hallelujah.
Glory, glory, [Bm] hallelujah.
His [Em] truth [D] is marching on.
I have seen him in the watch fires of a hundred circling camps.
[G] They have builded him an altar [D] in the evening dews and damps.
I have read his righteous sentence by the dim and [Bm] flaring lamps.

Glory, glory, hallelujah.
[G]
Glory, glory, [D] hallelujah.
Glory, glory, [Bm] hallelujah.
[Em] His truth [D] is marching on.
I have read a fiery gospel written burnished rows of steel.
As [G] you deal with my condemners, so [D] with you my grace shall deal.
Let the hero born of woman crush the serpent with his heel.

Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer.
Oh, be jubilant, my feet.
[G] His truth is [D] marching on.
Glory, glory, hallelujah.
[G] Glory, glory, [D] hallelujah.
In the beauty of the release, Christ was born across the sea.
With a [G] glory in his bosom [D] that transfigures you and [A] me.
