For Zion’s sake I will not rest,
I will not hold my peace,
Until Jerusalem be blest
And Judah dwell at ease.
Until her righteousness return,
As daybreak after night—
The lamp of her salvation burn
With everlasting light.
The gentiles shall her glory see,
And kings declare her fame;
Appointed unto her shall be
A new and holy name.
The, watchmen on her walls appear,
And day and night proclaim,
“Zion’s Deliverer is near;
Make mention of his name.
Go through, go through, prepare the way,
The gates wide open fling;
With loudest voice let heralds say,
“Behold thy coming King.”
