Hymn 290
6 6 6 6 8 8
1. O Zion! tune thy voice,
And raise thy hands on high,
Tell all the earth thy joys,
And boast salvation nigh.
Cheerful in God, arise and shine,
While rays divine, stream all around.

2. He'll cheer thy mourning face,
With beams that never fade,
His all resplendent grace,
He'll pour upon thy head,
The nations round, thy fame shall view
With lustre new, divinely crown.

3. In honor to his name,
Reflect that sacred light,
And loud that grace proclaim,
Which makes thy darkness bright.
Repeat his praise, 'till sovereign love
In worlds above, His glory raise.

4. Then Zion on thy hills,
A brighter sun shall rise,
And with his radiance fill,
Those fairer worlds on high.
While round his throne,
Ten thousand worlds,
In nobler spheres,
His influence own.
