O God of hosts, at Zion’s gate,
Glory and praise eternal wait:
Thou hearest prayer; all flesh shall come,
And worship at thy hallowed dome.
Wonders of mercy shall appear,
As answers to thy people’s prayer;
While earth and seas shall hear thy voice,
Revere thy tokens, and rejoice.
Formed by thy word, at thy command,
Upheld by thee, the mountains stand;
The boist’rous waves of ocean cease,
And furious tumult yields to peace.
See, flocks the verdant fields adorn;
See, valleys smile with bending corn;
Thy bounteous gifts diffused appear,
Great God! thy goodness crowns the year.
