| Joseph Friedlander, comp. The Standard Book of Jewish Verse. 1917. | | | | But Who Shall See? | | By Thomas Moore |
| | | BUT who shall see the glorious day | |
| When, throned on Zion’s brow, | |
| The Lord shall rend that veil away | |
| Which hides the nations now? | |
| When earth no more beneath the fear | 5 |
| Of His rebuke shall lie; | |
| When pain shall cease, and every tear | |
| Be wiped from every eye. | |
| |
| Then, Judah, thou no more shalt mourn | |
| Beneath the heathen’s chain; | 10 |
| Thy days of splendour shall return, | |
| And all be new again. | |
| The Fount of Life shall then be quaffed | |
| In peace by all who come! | |
| And every wind that blows shall waft | 15 |
| Some long-lost exile home! | | | | |
