Author: P. Doddridge Hymnal: The Gospel Message Choir #7 (1929) First Line: Triumphant Zion! lift thy head Refrain First Line: Rise, crowned with light Lyrics: 1 Triumphant Zion! lift thy head
From dust and darkness, and the dead;
Tho’ humbled long, awake at length,
And gird thee with thy Saviour’s strength.
Refrain:
Rise, crowned with light,
O Church of Christ, lift up thy head,—
Rise in thy might from dust and darkness and the dead;
Lift up thine eyes—
Behold thy Saviour now appears—
Glorious in pow'r—the Monarch of the years.
2 Put all thy beauteous garments on,
And let thy excellence be known;
The world thy glories shall confess,
Decked in the robes of righteousness. [Refrain]
3 No more shall foes unclean invade,
And fill thy hallowed walls with dread;
No more shall hell’s insulting host
Their vict'ry and thy sorrows boast. [Refrain]
4 God from on high has heard thy prayer;
His hand thy ruin shall repair;
Nor will thy watchful Monarch cease
To guard thee in eternal peace. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Triumphant Zion! lift thy head]
