Christ’s Day of Power

lyricist: Thomas Stockton, 1858
Composer: William Walter, 1872

Thy day of pow­er has come!

This ho­ly dawn di­vine!

And Zi­on’s hills

re­newed in youth

With dews of beau­ty shine.

Now may the pro­mised grace

Be ful­ly shed abroad

And all Thy will­ing peo­ple haste

To do the will of God!

The Fa­ther wills that Thou

Exalted at His side

Our on­ly pro­phet

priest

and king

Forever shalt ab­ide:

That all who love Thy name

One bro­ther­hood shall be

Kept by the stand­ard of Thy Word

From all di­vi­sions free:

That all Thy foes shall bow

Submissive at Thy feet

And Heav’n and earth

with one ac­cord

Thy per­fect em­pire greet!

Let Jews and Gen­tiles cry

Amen! God’s will be done!

Jesus! who died up­on the cross

We hail Thee on Thy throne!
