Gustav Holst - Sing to the Lord - ноты, текст песни (слова)

1. Sing to the Lord, ye distant lands,
 Peoples of every tongue;
 His new-discovered grace demands
 A new and nobler song. 
 
 2. Say to the nations, Jesus reigns,
 God's own almighty Son;
 His pow'r the sinking world sustains,
 And grace surrounds His throne. 
 
 3. Let heav'n proclaim the joyful day,
 Joy through the earth be seen;
 Let cities shine in bright array,
 And fields in cheerful green. 
 
 4. Let an unusual joy surprise
 The islands of the sea:
 Ye mountains, sink; ye valleys, rise;
 Prepare the Lord His way. 
 
 5.Behold, He comes - He comes to bless
 The nations as their God;
 To show the world His righteousness,
 And send His truth abroad. 
 
 6. But when the voice shall raise the dead,
 And bid the world draw near,
 How will the guilty nations dread
 To see their Lord appear.
