Lyics

Haste, Lord, the grand sabbatic year,

Of holiness and rest,

When sin and pain shall fly our sphere,

And never more molest.



Sweet peace shall spread her halcyon wing,

And love and joy return,

And every tongue enraptur'd sing,

And ev'ry bosom burn.



Subjected long, but not by choice,

To mis'ry's cruel bands,

Creation freed shall then rejoice,

Beneath thy fostering hand.



The savage wolf no longer fierce,

With infant lambs shall play,

And heav'n the prestine curse reverse,

In that Millennial day.
