The Church Hymnal ‎#263

263. Ye Christian heralds, go proclaim

1 Ye Christian heralds, go proclaim
Salvation through Emmanuel's Name;
To distant climes the tidings bear,
And plant the Rose of Sharon there.

2 God shield you with a wall of fire,
With flaming zeal your breasts inspire,
Bid raging winds their fury cease,
And calm the savage breast to peace.

3 And when our labors all are o'er,
Then may we meet to part no more:
Meet, with the ransomed throng to fall,
And crown our Jesus Lord of all.

Amen.
