Zion, from thee is sounded forth,
The word of an almighty God,
To tell the riches of His grace,
And spread his glories all abroad.
In terms expressive to unfold
The sinner’s doom, and sin’s desert,
The cross of Jesus to reveal,
And send conviction to the heart.
Unhappy they, estranged from God,
Whom neither wrath nor grace can move,
Who on the gospel cast contempt,
And still despise a Saviour’s love.
But to the sceptre they must yield,
Or bow beneath resistless power;
Oh may they tremble at thy word,
And saints with grateful hearts adore.
