Triumphant Zion

Triumphant Zion, lift thy head From dust and darkness and the dead! Though humbled long, awake at length, And gird thee with thy Saviour' s strength, And gird thee with thy Saviour' s strength.

Put all thy beauteous garments on, And let thine excellence be known. Decked in the robe of righteousness, The world thy glory shall confess, The world thy glory shall confess.

No more shall foes unclean invade, And fill thy hallowed courts with dread; No more shall sin' s defiling host Their vict' ry, and thy sorrows, boast, Their vict' ry, and thy sorrows, boast.

God, from on high, has heard thy prayer; His hand thy ruins shall repair; Nor will thy watchful Monarch cease To guard thee in eternal peace, To guard thee in eternal peace.

Yea, soon astonished men shall see The laurels of thy victory; And thou, with grace and glory crowned, May' st lavish blessings all around, May' st lavish blessings all around.
