#97HAIL TO THE BRIGHTNESS

1
HAIL to the brightness of Zion's glad morning! Joy to the lands that in darkness have lain; Hush'd be the accents of sorrow and mourning, Zion in triumph begins her mild reign.
2
Lo, in the desert rich flowers are springing, Streams ever copious are gliding along; Loud from the mountain-tops echoes are ringing, Wastes rise in verdure, and mingle in song.
3
See, the dead risen from land and from ocean, Praise to Jehovah, ascending on high; Fall'n are the engines of war and commotion, Shouts of salvation are rending the sky.
