<p>Hail to the brightness of Zion&#8217;s glad morning!<br>
Joy to the lands that in darkness have lain!<br>
Hushed be the accents of sorrow and mourning;<br>
Zion in triumph begins her mild reign.</p>
<p>Hail to the brightness of Zion&#8217;s glad morning!<br>
Long by the prophets of Israel foretold!<br>
Hail to the millions from bondage returning!<br>
Gentiles and Jews the blest vision behold.</p>
<p>Lo, in the desert rich flowers are springing,<br>
Streams ever copious are gliding along;<br>
Loud from the mountain tops echoes are ringing,<br>
Wastes rise in verdure, and mingle in song.</p>
<p>See, from all lands, from the isles of the ocean,<br>
Praise to the Savior ascending on high;<br>
Fallen the engines of war and commotion;<br>
Shouts of salvation are rending the sky.</p>
