496. O Zion, Haste, Thy Mission High Fulfilling

1 O Zion, haste, thy mission high fulfilling,
To tell to all the world that God is light;
That He who made all nations is not willing
One soul should perish, lost in shades of night.

Refrain:
Publish glad tidings, tidings of peace,
Tidings of Jesus, redemption and release.

2 Proclaim to every people, tongue, and nation
That God in whom they live and move is love;
Tell how He stooped to save His lost creation,
And died on earth that man might live above. [Refrain]

3 Give of thy sons to bear the message glorious,
Give of thy wealth to speed them on their way;
Pour out thy soul for them in prayer victorious,
And haste the coming of the glorious day. [Refrain]

Amen.
