Lyics

Rise, gracious God, and shine

In all thy saving might;

Now prosper ev'ry good design

To spread thy glorious light.



O bring the nations near

That they may sing thy praise;

Thy word let all the heathen hear,

And learn thy holy ways.



Send forth thy glorious pow'r;

All nations then shall see,

And earth present her grateful store,

In converts born to thee.
