Prayer for the Gentiles

Verse 1

Saviour King, assume thy pow'r, Thou that art the conqueror; Lead thy promis'd glory on, Bring the nations to thy throne.

Verse 2

Japhet's isles do bless thy name, Let the west thy worth proclaim; Wash the Ethiopian clean: In the east, new signs be seen.

Verse 3

Great the band of those be found, Who proclaim the joyful sond; Let it to thy Israel come, Let is bring the wand'rers home.

Verse 4

To the brightness of thy face, Fly in troops the suppliant race; Princes shall adorn the train, Monarchs bow, and bless thy reign.

Verse 5

When like light'ning thro' the skies, Will thy latter glory rise? When shall we behold thy pow'r? When salut th' accomplish'd hour?

Verse 6

Quickly, Lord, thy triumphs bring, Tongues and kindred wait to sing: Then shall all the chosen race Shout aloud, redeeming grace. Hallelujah.
