Triumphant Zion, lift thy head
from dust and darkness, and the dead;
though humbled long, awake at length,
|:and gird thee with thy Saviour's strength.:|
Put all thy beauteous garments on,
and let thy excellence be known:
decked in the robes of righteousness,
|:the world thy glories shall confess.:|
No more shall foes unclean invade,
and fill thy hallowed walls with dread:
no more shall hell's insulting host
|:their victory and thy sorrows boast.:|
God, from on high, has heard thy prayer;
his hand thy ruins shall repair:
nor will thy watchful Monarch cease
|:to guard thee in eternal peace.:|
---Alternative verses---
Put all thy beauteous garments on,
and let thy various charms be known:
then decked in robes of righteousness,
|:the world thy glories shall confess.:|
God, from on high, thy groans will hear;
his hand thy ruin shall repair:
nor will thy watchful Monarch cease
|:to guard thee in eternal peace.:|
