Religion
Matthew 24:30, 31: When shall the' imperial standard spread
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
When shall the' imperial standard spread
Its crimson through the skies?
To meet their great triumphant Head
When shall the members rise?
Gazing, Thy church, and listening stands:
We long to see Thee crown'd:
Now, Lord, send forth Thine angel-bands,
And bid the trumpet sound.
