O Tyre

Author: I. M. Ely Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11082 Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8.8.8 First Line: O Tyre, crowned empress of the sea Lyrics: 1 O Tyre, crowned empress of the sea, Proud merchant for the isles, How at thy fall the princes flee, And kings divide thy spoils. Refrain: The empires of man pass away, The city of God shall endure, No foe can her glory delay, The promise of God standeth sure. 2 Thy temple pillars strew the wave, Thy songs are heard no more. No sound now breaks thy stillness save The surges on thy shore. [Refrain] 3 Because against Jehovah’s land Was heard thy impious boast, In righteous wrath His mighty hand Hath swept thee from thy coast. [Refrain] 4 O Tyre, along thy lonely shore, The nations walk and wail; To Zion—Mount of God—I soar, Whose word can never fail. [Refrain] 5 In heavenly garniture appears The city of His love; Its golden harpings thrill my ears— Jerusalem above! [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: CHRISTÓBAL
