Among the nations he shall judge; His judgments truth shall guide; His scepter shall protect the just And quell the sinner’s pride. 3. No strife shall rage, nor hostile feuds Disturb those peaceful years; To plowshares men shall beat their swords, To pruning hooks their spears. No longer host encount’ring host Shall crowds of slain deplore; They’ll hang the trumpet in the hall And study war no more. 4. Come, then, O house of Jacob, come, To worship at His shrine, And, walking in the light of God, With holy beauties shine. Come, then, O house of Jacob, come, To worship at His shrine, And, walking in the light of God, With holy beauties shine.
