Can we, whose souls are lighted
With wisdom from on high,
Can we to men benighted
The lamp of life deny?
Salvation! oh salvation!
The joyful sound proclaim,
Till each remotest nation
Has learnt MESSIAH'S name!

Waft, waft, ye winds, His story,
And you, ye waters, roll,
Till like a sea of glory,

It spreads from pole to pole;
Till o'er our ransomed nature
The LAMB for sinner's slain,
REDEEMER, KING, CREATOR,

In bliss returns to reign! Amen.

"And GOD said, Let there be light, and there was light."

LIGHT of those who sit in darkness,

Rise and shine :-Thy blessing bring;
Light to lighten all the Gentiles,
Rise with healing on Thy wing.
To Thy brightness,

Kings and nations all shall come

!

May the heathen, now adoring
Idol gods of wood and stone,
Cast them off, and Thee imploring,
Serve the Living GOD alone.
Let Thy glory

Fill the earth from sea to sea.

O'er the wilds of heathen error,
Let the eye of pity gaze;
See the kindreds of the people,
Lost in sins bewildering maze.
Darkness broodeth

O'er the face of all the earth.

Thou to whom all power is given,
Speak the word! At Thy command,
Lo! the company of preachers,
Spread Thy name from land to land.
LORD be with them,

Always to the end of time! Amen.
