LyicsLORD, though the nations sit beneath
The darkness of o'erspreading death,
Thou wilt arise with light divine,
On Zion's holy towers to shine,
And Christ shall reign.
Lord, spread the triumphs of thy grace,
Let truth and righteousness and peace,
In mild and lovely forms display
The glories of the latter day.
Send Christ to reign.
