Zion's Victory Song

Representative Text

1 May we thy way prepare
For Him who breathed a prayer,
Thy Kingdom come!
Thy will in us be done,
Great God, as in Thy son,
Beside whom there is none,
His Kingdom come.

2 While nations armed and steeled
Seek Armageddon's field,
Give us command
Who tread the ways of peace,
From bondage bring release;
Let Zion's strength increase,
her reign expand.

3 And while her standard shines
Above our marching lines,
Victorious.
Give courage to each heart,
Vision and zeal impart,
Thou God who ever art,
Most glorious!
