Author: Philip Doddridge Hymnal: Laudes Domini #546 (1888) Scripture: Psalm 102:13 First Line: Triumphant Zion, lift thy head Lyrics: 1 Triumphant Zion, lift thy head
From dust, and darkness, and the dead;
Though humbled long, awake at length,
And gird thee with thy Saviour's strength.
2 Put all thy beauteous garments on,
And let thy various charms be known:
The world thy glories shall confess,
Decked in the robes of righteousness.
3 No more shall foes unclean invade,
And fill thy hallowed walls with dread;
No more shall hell's insulting host
Their victory and thy sorrows boast.
4 God, from on high, thy groans will hear;
His hand thy ruins shall repair;
Nor will thy watchful Monarch cease
To guard thee in eternal peace. Topics: Church Missions of; Church Triumph of; Church Work of Languages: English Tune Title: ANVERN
