Lyics

Triumphant Zion! lift thy head 

From dust, and darkness, and the dead!

Tho' humbled long, awake at length,

And gird thee with thy Savior's strength,

And gird thee with thy Savior's strength.



Put all thy beauteous garments on,

And let thy excellence be known;

Decked in the robes of righteousness,

The world thy glories shall confess.



No more shall foes unclean invade,

And fill thy hallowed walls with dread;

No more shall hell's insulting host

Their victory and thy sorrows boast.



God, from on high, has heard thy prayer:

His hand thy ruins shall repair;

Nor will thy watchful monarch cease

To guard thee in eternal peace.
