The Glory of Lebanon
O, charming Mount! thy flowery sides,
Thy heights with cedars crowned,
Thy gushing springs, and painted wings,
And birds of sweetest sound!
O, Lebanon! oh, roseate throne,
The Church of God shall be,
In days to come, a flowery home,
A roseate mount like thee!
O, fearful Mount! thy stormy Crown,
Thy echoing tongues of flame,
Whose awful word proclaims its God,
And bids adore His name!
O, Lebanon! oh, darkened throne,
The Church of God shall be,
In days to come, an anchored home,
A solid mount like thee!
O, mighty Mount! thy stony gates,
Thy heights in walls secure,
Thy dizzy hills, and sheltered dales
And guardians tried and sure!
O, Lebanon! oh, guarded throne,
The Church of God shall be
In days to come, a castled home,
A forted mount like thee!
Thy heights with cedars crowned,
Thy gushing springs, and painted wings,
And birds of sweetest sound!
O, Lebanon! oh, roseate throne,
The Church of God shall be,
In days to come, a flowery home,
A roseate mount like thee!
O, fearful Mount! thy stormy Crown,
Thy echoing tongues of flame,
Whose awful word proclaims its God,
And bids adore His name!
O, Lebanon! oh, darkened throne,
The Church of God shall be,
In days to come, an anchored home,
A solid mount like thee!
O, mighty Mount! thy stony gates,
Thy heights in walls secure,
Thy dizzy hills, and sheltered dales
And guardians tried and sure!
O, Lebanon! oh, guarded throne,
The Church of God shall be
In days to come, a castled home,
A forted mount like thee!
