PRAYER FAR THE SPREAD OF THE GOSPEL




Thy people, Lord, who trust thy word?
And wait the smilings of thy face,
Assemble round thy mercy seat,
And plead the promise of thy grace.


We consecrate these hours to thee,
Thy sovereign mercy to entreat;
And feel some animating hope,
We shall divine acceptance meet.


Hast thou not sworn to give thy Son,
To be a light to Gentile lands;
To open the benighted eye,
And loose the wretched pris’ners’ bands?


Hast thou not said from sea to sea
His vast dominions shall extend?
That ev’ry tongue shall call him Lord,
And ev`ry knee before him bend?


Now let the happy time appear,
The time to favor Zion come;
Send forth thy heralds far and near,
To call thy banish'd people home.


---Alternative verses---


Hast thou not promis'd to thy Son,
That his dominion shall extend,
Till ev'ry tongue shall call him Lord,
And ev'ry knee before him bend?
