2 Hail to the brightness of Zion's glad morning, 4 See, from all lands, from the isles of the ocean, T. Hastings, 1832 2 Yes, Thou shalt reign forever, Each ransomed captive sings. The deserts learn Thy praise, The hills and valleys, greeting, The song responsive raise. 314 MISSIONARY CHANT L. M. C. H. Zeuner, 1832 1. YE Christian her-alds, go pro-claim Sal va- tion thro' Em-man-uel's name; d dd. 2 For Him shall endless prayer be made, And praises throng to crown His head; His name, like sweet perfume, shall rise With every morning sacrifice. 3 People and realms, of every tongue, Dwell on His love with sweetest song; And infant voices shall proclaim Their early blessings on His name. 4 Blessings abound where'er He reigns; The prisoner leaps to lose his chains; The weary find eternal rest, And all the sons of want are blest. 5 Let every creature rise and bring Peculiar honors to our King; Angels descend with songs again, And earth repeat the loud Amen. |
