Lyics

LORD, send thy servants forth

To call the Hebrews home;

From east and west, from south and north,

Let all the wand'rers come.



Where'er, in lands unknown,

The fugitives remain,

Bid ev'ry creature help them on,

The holy mount to gain.



An off'ring to the Lord,

There let them all be seen,

And wash'd with water and with blood,

In soul and body clean.



With Israel's myriads seal'd,

Let all the nations meet,

And show the promises fulfill'd,

Thy family complete.
