Peace, like a river, from his throne

Shall flow to nations yet unknown.

298. 10s. M. Pope.

Predicted Glory of the Messiah's Kingdom.

1Rise, crowned with light, imperial Salem, rise!

Exalt thy towering head, and lift thine eyes!

See heaven its sparkling portals wide display,

And break upon thee in a flood of day!

2See a long race thy spacious courts adorn,

See future sons and daughters yet unborn,
