LyicsETERNAL Lord, from land to land
Shall echo thine all-glorious name,
Till kingdoms bow at thy command,
And every lip thy praise proclaim.
Exalted high on every shore,
The banner of the cross, unfurled,
Shall summon thousands to adore
The Saviour of the ransomed world.
Thousands shall join thy pilgrim band,
And, by that sacred standard led,
Press forward to Immanuel's land,
Nor fear the thorny path to tread.
Triumphant over every foe,
Their ransomed hosts shall move along
To that blest world, where sin and woe
Shall never mingle with their song.
