Great God of Abraham!

Great God of Ab­ra­ham! hear our pray­er

Let Ab­ra­ham’s seed Thy mer­cy share;

O may they now at length re­turn

And look on Him they pierced

and mourn.

Remember Ja­cob’s flock of old;

Bring home the wan­der­ers to Thy fold;

Remember too Thy pro­mised word

Israel at last shall seek the Lord.

Though out­casts still

es­tranged from Thee

Cut off from their own ol­ive tree;

Why should they long­er such re­main?

For Thou canst graft them in again.

Lord

put Thy law with­in their hearts

And write it in their in­ward parts;

The veil of dark­ness rend in two

Which hides Mes­si­ah from their view.

Oh! haste the day

fore­told so long

When Jew and Greek

a glo­ri­ous throng

One house shall seek

one pray­er shall pour

And one Re­deem­er shall ad­ore!
