-<poem>
-Sing to the Lord, ye distant lands,
-Ye tribes of ev'ry tongue;
-His new-discover'd grace demands
-A new and nobler song.
-Say to the nations, Jesus reigns,
-God's own almighty Son:
-His pow'r the sinking world sustains,
-And grace surrounds his throne.
-Let heav'n proclaim the joyful day,
-Joy through the earth be seen;
-Let cities shine in bright array,
-And fields in cheerful green.
-Let an unusual joy surprise
-The islands of the sea:
-Ye mountains, sink, ye valleys, rise,
-Prepare the Lord his way.
-Behold he comes, he comes to bless
-The nations, as their God;
-To shew the world his righteousness,
-And send his truth abroad.
-</poem>
