Isaiah 60:13: The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
The cedars shall obey My nod.
And all the trees of righteousness
Unite to form the house of God,
To beautify My holiest place,
The saints from every clime shall meet.
Their talents, gifts, and graces join.
To make My sanctuary complete.
And worthy its great Guest Divine.
That place where once I walk'd below,
On Olivet I will appear,
My bleeding feet to Israel show,
While those who pierced behold Me near;
Again I will forsake My throne,
And to My footstool earth descend,
And fill the world with peace unknown,
With glorious joy that ne'er shall end.
