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 blest vision behold.
3  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.
4  See, from all lands, from the isles of the ocean,
Praise to Jehovah ascending on high; Fallen are the engines of war and commotion, Shouts of salvation are rending the sky.
Thomas Hastings, 1832
