LyicsO CITY of the Lord begin,
The universal song,
And let the scatter'd villages,
The joyful notes prolong.
Let Kedar's wilderness afar,
Lift up its lonely voice;
And let the tenants of the rocks
In accents rude rejoice.
O in the strains of distant lands
Unto Jehovah sing;
And joyful from the mountain tops,
Shout to our Lord the King:
Let all combine with one accord,
The Saviour's glories raise,
Till in remotest bounds of earth,
The nations sound his praise.
