Zechariah 9:10: Come, Lord, to all, far off and near
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Come, Lord, to all, far off and near,
Command the heathen world to hear,
Baptized or unbaptized. Thy voice;
The gospel of Thy kingdom spread,
Bid every soul Thy hands have made
In Thy redeeming love rejoice:
Thy kingdom of internal peace
Shall make our wars and fightings cease.
That rapturous sense of sin forgiven
Spoken by Thee to every heart
Shall bid our enmity depart.
And turn our new-made earth to heaven.
