Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #353 (1899) Hymnal Title: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes Lyrics: 1 Daughter of Zion, awake from thy sadness;
Awake! for thy foes shall oppress thee no more;
Bright o'er thy hills dawns the day-star of gladness,
Rise! for the night of thy sorrow is o'er.
Refrain:
Daughter of Zion, awake from thy sadness;
Awake! for thy foes shall oppress thee no more.
2 Strong were Thy foes; but the arm that subdued them,
And scattered their legions, was mightier far;
They fled like the chaff from the scourge that pursued them,
Vain were their steeds, and their chariots of war. [Refrain]
3 Daughter of Zion, the Power that hath saved thee
Extolled with the harp and the timbrel should be;
Shout! for the foe is destroyed that enslaved thee,
Th'oppressor is vanquished, and Zion is free!
Daughter of Zion, awake from thy sadness;
Awake! for thy foes shall oppress thee no more,
Shall oppress thee no more, no more, no more.
Amen. Topics: Missions; Reformation Festival Languages: English Tune Title: DAUGHTER OF ZION
