Lord of all worlds, incline thy bounteous ear

Verse 1

Lord of all worlds, incline thy bounteous ear, Thy children's voice, in tender mercy, hear; Bear thy blest promise, fixed as hills, in mind, And shed renewing grace on lost mankind!

Verse 2

Let Zion's walls before thee ceaseless stand, Dear as thine eye, and graven on thy hand; From earth's far regions Jacob's sons restore, Oppressed by man, and scourged by thee no more.

Verse 3

Then shall mankind no more in darkness mourn, Then happy nations in a day be born; From east to west thy glorious name be one, And one pure worship hail the eternal Son.

Verse 4

Then shall thy saints exult with joy divine; Their virtues quicken, and their lives refine; Heaven o'er the world unfold a brighter day, And Jesus spread his reign from sea to sea!
