Author: Robert Murray, 1832-1909 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 78 hymnals Lyrics: 1 From ocean unto ocean
our land shall name you, Lord
and, filled with true devotion,
obey your sovereign word;
our prairies and our mountains,
forest and fertile field,
our rivers, lakes and fountains
to you shall tribute yield.
2 O Christ, we pray before you:
come in your power to dwell.
Now humbly we implore you:
make this land whole and well,
and may we know, Lord Jesus,
the touch of your dear hand,
and, healed of our diseases,
the tempter's power withstand.
3 Our Savior King, defend us,
and guide where we should go;
forth with your message send us,
your love and light to show;
till, fired with true devotion
and kindled by your word,
from ocean unto ocean
our land shall name you Lord. Topics: Evangelism; Jesus Christ Kingship / Reign; National Occasions Scripture: Psalm 72:8 Used With Tune: ELLACOMBE
