382. Our Country's Voice Is Pleading

1 Our country’s voice is pleading,
Ye men of God, arise!
His providence is leading,
The land before you lies;
O’er it the day has brightened,
And promise clothes the soil;
Wide fields, for harvest whitened,
Invite the reaper’s toil.

2 The love of Christ unfolding,
Speed on from east to west,
Till all, His cross beholding,
In Him are fully blest.
Great Author of salvation,
Haste, haste the glorious day
When we, a ransomed nation,
Thy scepter shall obey.

Amen.
