[Rising out of Thy holy place]

The Lord shall inherit Judah His portion, &c. —ii. 12, 13.

Rising out of Thy holy place,
Almighty Lord, appear,
To choose again Thy chosen race,
To claim Thy portion here;
Brought back into the promised land
Thine ancient flock restore,
That all mankind may see Thy hand,
And silently adore!
