Tune: | MISSIONARY CHANT |
Composer: | Charles Zeuner |
1 Sovereign of worlds! display thy power;
Be this thy Zion's favored hour;
Bid the bright morning Star arise,
And point the nations to the skies.
2 Set up thy throne where Satan reigns,--
On Afric's shore, on India's plains,
On wilds and continents unknown,--
And make the nations all thine own.
3 Speak! and the world shall hear thy voice;
Speak! and the desert shall rejoice;
Scatter the gloom of heathen night,
And bid all nations hail the light.
