This hymn has a unique tune.

 
 1 

Sound ye the trumpet-call;

Heralds proclaim

Jesus as Lord of all,

Sound forth His fame;

Tell of His great renown,

Lift high the kingly crown,

Let every knee bow down

At His blest name.

 
 2 

Who will go forth for Him?

Who will arise?

Though eyes with tears are dim,

Severed love's ties:

Counting all things but loss,

Earth's highest gain but dross,

And glorying in the cross,

Who will arise?

 
 3 

Go, for the crowning day

Draws ever near;

Time will soon pass away,

Jesus be here:

Raise ye the cross where now

Nations to idols bow;

Dawn o'er the mountain's brow

Tells He is near.

 
 4 

Hark to the trumpet-blast!

Jesus is King!

He comes to reign at last,

All conquering:

Then the wide world shall own,

Bending before His throne,

Jesus is King alone,

Jesus is King!
