<pre>Hymn 186
L.M.
1. Hosanna to the Great Messiah,
The long expected king of Kings;
He'll come and cleanse the earth by fire,
And gather scattered Israel in.

2. On Zion's mount his throne shall be;
His sanctuary stand secure—
His sceptre o'er the nations sway,
And all creation him adore.

3. He'll judge with justice for the poor—
He will with equity reprove—
He'll smite the wicked with his power—
Oppression from the earth remove.

4. Princes, and kings, and dukes, and lords,
And mighty men of great renown
Shall pray, but not unto the Lord,
But to the rocks and hills bow down.

5. Ye rocks and mountains on us fall,
To hide us from the Great Messiah;
For lo! the day of wrath has come,
The Lord's great day of dreadful ire.

6. The poor and meek shall then rejoice,
The Saints in peace possess the land,
The sheep shall hear the shepherd's voice,
And with him on mount Zion stand.</pre>
