Lyics

Ye Christian heralds! go, proclaim

Salvation through Immanuel's name;

To distant climes the tidings bear,

And plant the rose of Sharon there.



He'll shield you with a wall of fire,

With holy zeal your hearts inspire,

Bid raging winds their fury cease,

And hush the tempest into peace.



And when our labors all are o'er,

Then we shall meet to part no more,--

Meet with the blood-bought throng, to fall,

And crown our Jesus--Lord of all!
