|
|
<p>Hills of the north, rejoice;<br>
|
|
River and mountain spring,<br>
|
|
Hark to the advent voice;<br>
|
|
Valley and lowland, sing;<br>
|
|
Though absent long, your Lord is nigh;<br>
|
|
He judgment brings and victory.</p>
|
|
<p>Isles of the southern seas,<br>
|
|
Deep in your coral caves<br>
|
|
Pent be each warring breeze,<br>
|
|
Lulled be your restless waves:<br>
|
|
He comes to reign with boundless sway,<br>
|
|
And makes your wastes His great highway.</p>
|
|
<p>Lands of the East, awake,<br>
|
|
Soon shall your sons be free;<br>
|
|
The sleep of ages break,<br>
|
|
And rise to liberty.<br>
|
|
On your far hills, long cold and gray,<br>
|
|
Has dawned the everlasting day.</p>
|
|
<p>Shores of the utmost West,<br>
|
|
Ye that have waited long,<br>
|
|
Unvisited, unblest,<br>
|
|
Break forth to swelling song;<br>
|
|
High raise the note, that Jesus died,<br>
|
|
Yet lives and reigns, the Crucified.</p>
|
|
<p>Shout, while ye journey home;<br>
|
|
Songs be in every mouth;<br>
|
|
Lo, from the North we come,<br>
|
|
From East, and West, and South.<br>
|
|
City of God, the bond are free,<br>
|
|
We come to live and reign in thee!</p>
