Tune:ALVA
Composer:John Emert

27. From shore to shore let God's great name

From shore to shore let God's great name
sound all the earth abroad,
till all its peoples know and love
their Savior and their God.
Earth shall obey its Maker's will,
and yield a full increase;
for God will crown the lands of earth
with fruitfulness and peace.

Sing to the Lord, all distant lands,
sing loud with solemn voice;
let thankful tongues exalt God's name,
let grateful hearts rejoice.
For God, the Lord, the sovereign Judge,
who sits enthroned above,
will wisely rule and bless the world
with justice and with love.
