MISSIONARY HYMN .
Thy kingdom come, immortal King!
Thy right maintain, Thy power display;
Earth's myriads to Thy footstool bring;
Make all the nations own Thy sway!
Come, with the eagle's daring flight,
Conquer the hosts of death and sin;
Flood the whole globe with holy light,
O kingdom of our God, come in!
Come as the swelling tides that break
In mighty waves on every strand;
Kingdom of God, in triumph wake
O'er every sea, o'er every land!
We wait Thy breath, immortal Dove!
Speak to earth's woes Thy healing word;
Come, wafted on the wings of love,
Make all the nations own Thee, Lord!
Thy kingdom come! — rise, Saviour, rise!
Assume Thy power, ascend Thy throne,
Till universal Nature cries,
" Strike the glad hour, — the work is done! "
