3 Rise, Sion, rise! and looking forth,
Behold thy children round thee!
From east and west, from south and north
Thy scattered sons have found thee;
And in thy bosom Christ adore
For ever and for evermore.
4. O Father, O co-equal Son,
O co-eternal Spirit,
In persons Three, in substance One
And One in power and merit;
In thee baptized, we thee adore
For ever and for evermore. Amen.
