Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #P.LXVII (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Shine, mighty God, on Zion shine, With beams of heav'nly grace; Reveal thy pow'r thro' all our coasts, And show thy smiling face. 2 [Amidst our realm exalted high Do thou our glory stand, And like a wall of guardian fire Surround the fav'rite land.] 3 When shall thy name from shore to shore Sound all the earth abroad; And distant nations know and love Their Saviour and their God. 4 Sing to the Lord, ye distant lands, Sing loud with solemn voice; Let ev'ry tongue exalt his praise, And ev'ry heart rejoice. 5 He the great Lord, the sov'reign Judge, That sits enthron'd above, In wisdom rules the worlds he made, And bids them taste his love. 6 Earth shall obey his high command, And yield a full increase: Our God will crown his chosen land With fruitfulness and peace. 7 God, the Redeemer scatters round His choicest favours here, While the creation's utmost bound Shall see, adore, and fear.
