Text: | The Lord Reigneth |
1 Ye servants of God, your master proclaim;
And publish abroad his wonderful name;
The name all victorious of Jesus extol;
His Kingdom is glorious, and rules over all.
2 God ruleth on high, almighty to save;
And still he is nigh his presence we have,
The great congregation his triumph shall sing
Ascribing salvation to Jesus our King.
3 Salvation to God who sits on the throne;
Let all cry aloud and honor the Son:
Our Jesus' praises, the Angels proclaim,
Fall down on their faces,
And worship the Lamb.
4 Then let us adore,
And give him his right;
All glory and pow'r,
And wisdom and might;
All honour and blessing,
With Angels above,
And thanks never ceasing,
And infinite love.
