Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism #362 (2018) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Revelation 11:15 First Line: Jesus shall reign where'er the sun Lyrics: 1 Jesus shall reign where'er the sun
Does His successive journeys run;
His kingdom stretch from shore to shore,
Till moons shall wax and wane no more.
2 To Him shall endless prayer be made,
And praises throng to crown His head;
His Name like sweet perfume shall rise
With ev'ry morning sacrifice.
3 People and realms of ev'ry tongue
Dwell on His love with sweetest song;
And infant voices shall proclaim
Their early blessings on His Name.
4 Blessings abound where'er He reigns;
The pris'ner leaps to lose his chains;
The weary find eternal rest,
And all who suffer want are blest.
5 Let ev'ry creature rise and bring
Blessing and honor to our King;
Angels descend with songs again,
And earth repeat the loud Amen. Topics: The Celebration of the Gospel Story Christ the King; Example of Jesus Christ Languages: English Tune Title: DUKE STREET
