Look down, O God, with pitying eye,
And view the desolations round;
See what wide realms in darkness lie,
And hurl their idols to the ground.
Lord, let the gospel-trumpet blow,
And call the nations from afar;
Let all the isles their Saviour know,
And earth's remotest ends draw near.
Let Satan's cruel kingdom shake,—
The realms of darkness and of sin:
Messiah now his empire take—
In ev'ry soul his reign begin.
