O Zion, haste, thy mission high fulfilling,To tell to all the world that God is Light;

That He who made all nations is not willingOne soul should perish, lost in shades of night.

Publish glad tidings, tidings of peace; idings of Jesus, Redemption and release.

Or of the life He died for them to win.

And all thou spendest Jesus will repay.

He comes again: O Zion, ere thou meet Him,Make known to ev’ry heart His saving grace;

Let none whom he hath ransomed fail to greet Him,

Thru thy neglect, unfit to see His face.
