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] Languages: English Tune Title: [From Egypt lately come]
