Valley and lowland, sing! Though absent long, your Lord is nigh; He judgment brings, and victory. 2 Isles of the southern seas, Deep in your coral caves Pent be each warring breeze, Lulled be your restless waves; He comes to reign with boundless sway, And makes your wastes his great highway. 3 Lands of the East, awake! Soon shall your sons be free; The sleep of ages break, And rise to liberty. On your far hills, long cold and grey, Has dawned the everlasting day. 4 Shores of the utmost West, Ye that have waited long, Unvisited, unblest, Break forth to swelling song; High raise the note, that Jesus died, Yet lives and reigns, the Crucified. 5 Shout, while ye journey home! Songs be in every mouth! Lo, from the North we come, From East, and West, and South: City of God, the bond are free, We come to live and reign in thee! Used With Tune: LITTLE CORNARD
