From Greenland's Icy Mountains

Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #100 (1930) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Processionals and Recessionals Missions Lyrics: 1 From Greenland's icy mountains, From India's coral strand, Where Afric's sunny fountains Roll down their golden sand; From many an ancient river, From many a palmy plain, They call us to deliver Their land from error's chain. 2 What though the spicy breezes Blow soft o'er Ceylon's isle; Though ev'ry prospect pleases And only man is vile: In vain, with lavish kindness, The gifts of God are strewn; The heathen in his blindness Bows down to wood and stone. 3 Shall we, whose souls are lighted By wisdom from on high-- Shall we to man benighted The lamp of life deny? Salvation, O salvation! The joyful sound proclaim Till earth's remotest nation Has learned Messiah's name. 4 Waft, waft, ye winds, His story; And you, ye waters, roll Till, like a sea of glory, It spreads from pole to pole; Till o'er our ransomed nature, The Lamb for sinners slain, Redeemer, King, Creator, Returns in bliss to reign. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: MISSIONARY HYMN
