“Proclaim my gospel," saith the Lord,
“Ye preachers of my sacred word:
Let ev’ry nation hear the theme,
Beginning at Jerusalem.”
“Go. let the chief of sinners know,
That I have blessings to bestow;
Proclaim salvation in my name,
Beginning at Jerusalem.”
“Where I was treated. with disdain,
Where I was crucify’d and slain ;
There shall my gospel gain esteem,
Beginning at Jerusalem.”
“My pard’ning love proclaim abroad,
And show the virtue of my blood;
'Till time shall end, procIaim my grace:
To ev’ry land, in ev’ry place.”
“In yonder world, behold the train
Of sinners sav’d from endless pain;
Ascribing glory to the Lamb,
Within the New Jerusalem.”
