Look with compassion on the coasts

1.

Look with compassion on the coasts

And the land of the heathen

See, how in their thousands, they are won

Struggling and dying in sin

Darkness covers, darkness covers

Many lives in our vast land

2.

The light of people in darkness

Arise, bring blessings to us

Light for those in heathen darkness

Come, with healing in Thy wings

Let all the kings, let all the kings

Come into Thy blessing light

3.

Let all the heathens who worship

Gods of woods and gods of stone

Come, that they might fall down and bow

Before the Almighty God

Let thy glory, let thy glory

Cover all the land and sea

4.

Thou, to whom all might is given

Speak the word, give the decree

Let the company of preachers

Proclaim Thy name all abroad

Be Thou with them, be thou with them won

Even, Lord, unto the end
