“Land of ancient India
Cradle of humanity, hail
Hail! revered motherland,
Whom centuries of brutal invasions
Have not yet buried
Under the dust of oblivion.
Hail! Fatherland of faith,
Of love, of poetry and of science,
May we hail a revival of thy past
In our Western future!”

The Bible in India, as quoted in K. M. Talreja, Holy Vedas and Holy Bible: A Comparative Study https://books.google.com/books?id=9qkoAAAAYAAJ, New Delhi: Rashtriya Chetana Sangathan, 2000

Hail the Sun of Righteousness!”

Context: Hail the heavenly Prince of Peace!
Hail the Sun of Righteousness!

Risen with healing in his wings.

Born that man no more may die,
Born to raise the sons of earth,
Born to give them second birth.
