Primary Scripture: Psalm 64:9
Verse 1
Great God! the nations of the earth Are by creation thine; And in thy works, by all beheld, Thy radiant glories shine.
Verse 2
But, Lord! thy greater love has sent Thy gospel to mankind, Unveiling what rich stores of grace Are treasured in thy mind.
Verse 3
Lord! when shall these glad tidings spread The spacious earth around, Till every tribe and every soul Shall hear the joyful sound?
Verse 4
Smile, Lord, on each divine attempt To spread the gospel's rays, And build on sin's demolished throne The temples of thy grace.
