Original text and translations
English text
- 1.
- We sing the glorious conquest,
- Before Damascus’ gate,
- When Saul, the Church’s spoiler,
- Came breathing threats and hate;
- The rav’ning wolf rushed forward
- Full early to the prey;
- But lo! the Shepherd met him,
- And bound him fast today.
- 2.
- O glory most excelling
- That smote across his path!
- O light that pierced and blinded
- The zealot in his wrath!
- O voice that spake within him
- The calm, reproving word!
- O love that sought and held him
- The bondman of his Lord!
- 3.
- O Wisdom ord’ring all things
- In order strong and sweet,
- What nobler spoil was ever
- Cast at the Victor’s feet?
- What wiser master builder
- E’er wrought at Thine employ
- Than he, till now so furious
- Thy building to destroy?
- 4.
- Lord, teach thy Church the lesson,
- Still in her darkest hour
- Of weakness and of danger,
- To trust Thy hidden power;
- Thy grace by ways mysterious
- The wrath of man can bind,
- And in Thy boldest foeman
- Thy chosen saint can find.
Lyrics: John Ellerton, 1871.
