Daughter of Zion! from the dust Exalt thy fallen head; Again in thy Redeemer trust, He calls thee from the dead. | Awake, awake! put on thy strength, Thy beautiful array; The day of freedom dawns at length, The Lord’s appointed day. | Rebuild thy walls, thy bounds enlarge, And send thy heralds forth; Say to the south, “Give up thy charge, And keep not back, O north!” | They come, they come;—thine exiled bands, Where’er they rest or roam, Have heard thy voice in distant lands, And hasten to their home. | |
