Thomson Hymnal: Our Great Redeemer's Praise #451 (2022) Meter: 11.10.11.10 with refrain Topics: The Church, The Saints Mission First Line: O Zion, haste, thy mission high fulfilling Refrain First Line: Publish glad tidings, tidings of peace Lyrics: 1 O Zion, haste, thy mission high fulfilling,
to tell to all the world that God is Light;
that He who made all nations is not willing
one soul should perish, lost in shades of night.
Refrain:
Publish glad tidings, tidings of peace;
tidings of Jesus, redemption, and release.
2 Behold, how many thousands still are lying,
bound in the darksome prison-house of sin,
with none to tell them of the Savior’s dying,
or of the life He died for them to win. [Refrain]
3 Proclaim to ev'ry people, tongue, and nation
that God, in whom they live and move, is love;
tell how He stooped to save His lost creation,
and died on earth that we might live above. [Refrain]
4 Give of thy sons to bear the message glorious;
give of thy wealth to speed them on their way;
pour out thy soul for them in prayer victorious;
O Zion, haste to bring the brighter day. [Refrain] Scripture: Romans 10:8-18 Languages: English Tune Title: TIDINGS
O Zion, Haste
