Shine, might-y God, Thy peo-ple bless
With beams of heaven-ly grace;
Re-veal Thy power through all the earth,
And show Thy smil-ing face.
When shall Thy Name, from shore to shore,
Sound all the world a-broad,
And dis-tant na-tions know and love
Their Sav-iour and their God?
Sing to the Lord, ye dis-tant lands,
Sing loud with sol-emn voice;
Let ev-ery tongue ex-alt His praise,
And ev-ery heart re-joice.
He the great Lord, the sov-ereign Judge,
That sits en-throned a-bove,
Wise-ly com-mands the worlds He made
In jus-tice and in love.
Earth shall o-bey His high com-mand,
And yield a full in-crease;
Our God will crown His cho-sen land
With fruit-ful-ness and peace.
God the Re-deem-er scat-ters round
His choic-est fav-ours here,
While the cre-a-tion's ut-most bound
Shall see, a-dore and fear.
