Hag. 2.7. The desire of all Nations shall come.
1 There is enough in Christ to fill All Nations of the Earth; The Nations never will be still Until he shall come forth.
1 THere is enough in Christ to fill All Nations of the Earth; The Nations never will be still Until he shall come forth.
2 Some in all Nations long for peace, Therefore desire thee; And wars, O Lord shall never cease Until the Prince they see.
3 The Nations long for some great thing, Their desires are for good; And all true good from thee does spring, Though not well understood.
