CCCLXXIV. The spread of the gospel

1 To distant lands thy gospel send,
And thus thy empire wide extend;
To gentile, Turk, and stubborn Jew,
Thou king of grace! salvation shew.

2 Where'er, thy sun, or light arise,
Thy name, O God! immortalize:
May nations yet unborn confess,
Thy wisdom, power, and righteousness.
