Good news is published. Now to every land
The Christian message carries health and cheer,
For universal freedom draweth near —
Salvation's greatest gift, the globe has spanned!
May all who read arise to greet the dawn
Of understanding—wake to brotherhood —
To find in Love's dear father-motherhood,
A faith on which to lean, a hope newborn.
How many millions, reaching out for bread,
Shall grasp thy hand, shall hear the gospel sound?
How many hungry hearts shall be well fed,
And comforted, and healed, the world around?
In beauty do thy feet the mountains tread,
That Christ, the Truth, may evermore abound!
