Prayer, for the whole World

Hymnal: PHSS1792 #CCXCI (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Father, is not thy promise pledg'd Lyrics: 1 Father, is not thy promise pledg'd To thine exalted Son, That thro' the nations of the earth Thy word of life shall run? 2 "Ask, and I give the heathen lands For thine inheritance, And to the world's remotest shores Thine empire shall advance." 3 Hast thou not said, the blinded Jews Shall their redeemer own; While Gentiles to his standard croud, And bow before his throne? 4 Are not all kingdoms, tribes, and tongues, Under th' expanse of heav'n, To the dominion of thy Son Without exception giv'n? 5 From east to west, from north to south, Then be his name ador'd! Europe, with all thy millions, shout Hosannahs to the Lord! 6 Asia and Africa, resound From shore to shore his fame; And thou, America, in songs, Redeeming love proclaim!

Author: Watts Hymnal: PHSS1792 #CCLI (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: How is our nature spoil'd by sin! Lyrics: 1 How is our nature spoil'd by sin!
