Nations That Long in Darkness Walked

Author: John Barnard Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4660 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. Nations that long in darkness walked Have now beheld a glorious light; On them who dwelt in shades of death The light hath shinèd heav’nly bright. 2. For lo! the virgin’s child is born; To us the Son of God is giv’n. Upon His shoulders shall be laid The government of earth and Heav’n. 3. His name is callèd wonderful, The counselor, the mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace, Peace dearly purchased with His blood. 4. His government shall know no bounds, But far and wide o’er all extend; And happy peace, the glorious fruits Of His just reign, shall know no end. 5. O’er David’s kingdom, on His throne To rule, and ’stablish it secure With judgment clear, and justice right; His reign forever shall endure. Languages: English Tune Title: MARBLEHEAD

Nations, that long in Darkness walk'd

Hymnal: A New Version of the Psalms of David #269b (1752) Lyrics: 2. Nations, that long in Darkness walk'd,. Have now beheld a glorious Light; On them, who dwelt in Shades of Death, The Light hath shined heav'nly bright. 6. For lo! the Virgin's Child is born, To us the Son of God is giv'n; Upon his Shoulders shall be lay'd The Government of Earth, and Heav'n; His Name is called Wonderfull, The Counsellour, the mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace: Peace dearly purchas'd with his Blood. 7. His Government shall know no Bounds, But far and wide, o'er all extend; And happy Peace, the glorious Fruits Of his just Reign, shall know no End. O'er David's Kingdom, on his Throne, To rule, and stablish it secure; With Judgment clear, and Justice right, His Reign forever shall endure. Scripture: Isaiah 9 Languages: English
