Mighty Lord, extend Thy kingdom,
Be the truth with triumph crowned;
Let the lands that sit in darkness
Hear the glorious Gospel sound,
|: From our borders :|
To the world’s remotest bound.
By Thine arm, eternal Father,
Scatter far the shades of night;
Let the great Immanuel’s kingdom
Open like the morning light;
|: Let all barriers :|
Yield before Thy heavenly might.
Come in all Thy Spirit’s power;
Come, Thy reign on earth restore;
In Thy strength ride forth and conquer,
Still advancing more and more,
|: Till all people :|
Shall Thy holy Name adore.
