Lyrics
-
1. Like ten thousand legions marchingMoves a mighty band of youth,Boldly taking to all peopleZion's glorious song of truth.
-
2. Out of ev'ry nation surging--Sons of Joseph, Israel's band--Now they spread salvation's messageIn the tongues of ev'ry land.
-
3. Far across the mighty waters,Reaching ev'ry waiting shore,Seed of Abraham and JacobLike a mighty lion roar.
-
4. Come, ye nations, out of darkness;'Tis the time of Christ's return.Heed the Restoration's message;Let its light within you burn.
