The race that long in darkness pin'd

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 217 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1 The race that long in darkness pin'd, have seen a glorious light; the people dwell in day, who dwelt in death’s surrounding night. 2 To hail thy rise, thou better Sun! the gath’ring nations come, joyous, as when the reapers bear the harvest treasures home. 3 For thou our burden hast remov’d, and quell'd th’ oppressor’s sway, quick as the slaughter'd squadrons fell in Midian’s evil day. 4 To us a Child of hope is born; to us a Son is giv’n, him shall the tribes of earth obey, him all the hosts of heav’n. 5 His name shall be the Prince of Peace, for evermore ador'd, the Wonderful, the Counsellor, the great and mighty Lord. 6 His pow’r increasing still shall spread, his reign no end shall know; justice shall guard his throne above, and peace abound below.
