Mountains of Israel, rear on high
Your summits, crown'd with verdure new.
And spread your branches to the sky,
Refulgent with celestial dew.
Fresh cities bloom along the plain;
New temples to Jehovah rise;
The kindling voice of praise again
Wings its sweet anthems to the skies.
The bloody sacrifice no more
Shall smoke upon the altars high;
But ardent hearts from hill to shore
Send grateful incense to the sky.
The jubilee of man is near—
'Tis come, our God's unbounded reign;
Our Jesus wipes the mourner's tear,
And Satan's wiles are all in vain.
Praise Him, ye tribes of Israel, praise
The King that ransom'd you from woe;
Nations! the hymn of triumph raise,
And bid the song of rapture flow.
