Daughter of Zion, now rejoice!
Thy King is come, whose mighty hand
Henceforth shall reign o'er ev'ry land.
2 He come to every tribe and race,
A Messenger of truth and grace:
With peace He comes from heaven above
On earth to found His realm of love.
3 In God's eternal covenant,
He comes for our salvation sent.
The star of hope moves on before,
And hosts assemble to adore.
4 Let all the world with one accord
Now hail the coming of the Lord:
Praise to the Prince of heavenly birth
Who bringeth peace to all the earth!
Amen. Topics: Church Year Advent; Advent, First Sunday; Palm Sunday; A Missionary Service; Names and Office of Christ King; Church to receive her King; Comfort; Covenant Eternal; Kingdom of Christ; Missions Foreign; Zion, the Church Used With Tune: VOM HIMMEL HOCH DA KOMM ICH HER
