Lyics

Eternal 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 Savior of a 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.
