Do You See the Hebrew Captive Kneeling?

Do you see the He­brew cap­tive kneel­ing

At morn­ing

noon and night

to pray?

In his cham­ber he re­mem­bers Zi­on

Though in ex­ile far away.

Are your win­dows op­en to­ward Je­ru­sa­lem

Though as cap­tives here

a lit­tle while we stay?

For the com­ing of the King in His glo­ry

Are you watch­ing day by day?

Do not fear to tread the fie­ry fur­nace

Nor shrink the li­on’s den to share;

For the God of Da­ni­el will de­li­ver

He will send His an­gel there.

Children of the liv­ing God

take cour­age

Your great de­li­ver­ance sweet­ly sing.

Set your fac­es to­ward the hill of Zi­on

Thence to hail your com­ing king.
