[Send then Thy servants forth]

Send then Thy servants forth
To call the Hebrews home,
From west and east, and south and north,
Let all the wanderers come;
Where'er in lands unknown
Thy fugitives remain,
Bid every creature help them on
Thy holy mount to gain:
An offering to their God
There let them all be seen,
Sprinkled with water and with blood,
In soul and body clean;
With Israel's myriads seal'd
Let all the nations meet,
And show Thy mystery fulfill'd,
Thy family complete.
