Lyrics
-
1. Hail to the brightness of Zion's glad morning!Joy to the lands that in darkness have lain!Hushed be the accents of sorrow and mourning.Zion in triumph begins her glad reign.
-
2. Hail to the brightness of Zion's glad morning,Long by the prophets of Israel foretold!Hail to the millions from bondage returning!Gentiles and Jews the glad vision behold.
-
3. Lo! in the desert the flowers are springing;Streams, ever copious, are gliding along.Loud from the mountaintops echoes are ringing;Wastes rise in verdure and mingle in song.
-
4. Hark! from all lands, from the isles of the ocean,Praise to Jehovah ascending on high.Fallen the engines of war and commotion;Shouts of salvation are rending the sky.
