We long to see that happy time
L. M.
1
We long to see that happy time,That long-expected, blissful day,When men of every name and climeThe glorious Savior shall obey.
2
The word of God shall firm abide,Though earth and hell should dare oppose;The stone cut from the mountain's sideThe powers of earth and hell o'erthrows.
3
From east to west, from south to north,Immanuel's kingdom shall extend,And man, wherever he goes forth,Shall find all brethren, each a friend.
4
Afric's emancipated sonsShall shout to Asia's rapturous song;Europe, with her unnumbered tongues,And western climes, the strain prolong.
