Pause. 5 Let Babel fear when Sion prays, Babel, prepare for long distress, When Sion's God himself arrays In terror and in righteousness. 6 With dreadful glory God fulfils What his afflicted saints request; And with Almighty wrath reveals His love to give his churches rest. 7 Then shall the flocking nations run To Sion's hill and own their Lord; The rising and the setting sun Shall see the Saviour's name ador'd. Scripture: Psalm 65:1-5

The bleating flocks spread o'er the downs, And shepherds shout thy praise. Scripture: Psalm 65
