"He showeth His word unto Jacob, and His statutes and His judgments. He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for His judgments, they have not known them" (Psalm 147:19,20). "Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons. But in every nation he that feareth Him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with Him. The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ (He is Lord of all): that word, I say.... give all the prophets witness, that through His name whosoever believeth in Him shall receive remission of sins" (Acts 10:34-43).
The Word that God gave to Israel's nation
Was not for that nation alone.
The prophets gave witness to God's great salvation
That Christ and His grace may be shown.
That Word of His peace to each nation we preach,
For Jesus is Lord of them all.
Thus to the end of the earth it will reach,
And thus every soul it will call.
