Jesus Shall Reign
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,801 hymnals First Line: Jesus shall reign where'er the sun Lyrics: 1 Jesus shall reign where'er the sun
does its successive journeys run;
his kingdom spread from shore to shore,
till moons shall wax and wane no more.
2 To him shall endless prayer be made,
and endless praises crown his head;
his name like sweet perfume shall rise
with every morning sacrifice.
3 People and realms of every 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 prisoners leap to lose their chains,
the weary find eternal rest,
and all who suffer want are blessed.
5 Let all the people rise and bring
their special honors to our King;
angels descend with songs again
and earth repeat the loud Amen.

Lead On, O King Eternal
Author: Ernest W. Sturtleff Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 397 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lead on, O King Eternal,
the day of march has come;
henceforth in fields of conquest
your tents will be our home.
Through days of preparation
your grace has made us strong,
and now, O King eternal,
we lift our battle song.
2 Lead on, O King Eternal,
till sin's fierce war shall cease,
and holiness shall whisper
the sweet Amen of peace;
for not with swords' loud clashing,
or roll of stirring drums,
with deeds of love and mercy
the heavenly kingdom comes.
3 Lead on, O King Eternal;
we follow, not with fears;
for gladness breaks like morning
where'er your face appears;
your cross is lifted o'er us;
we journey in its light;
the crown awaits the conquest;
lead on, O God of might.

Christ for the World! We Sing
Author: Samuel Wolcott Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 408 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Christ for the world! we sing;
the world to Christ we bring,
with loving zeal--
the poor and them that mourn,
the faint and overborne,
sin-sick and sorrow-worn,
for Christ to heal.
2 Christ for the world! we sing;
the world to Christ we bring,
with fervent prayer--
the wayward and the lost,
by restless passions tossed,
redeemed at countless cost
from dark despair.
3 Christ for the world! we sing;
the world to Christ we bring
with one accord--
with us the work to share,
with us reproach to dare,
with us the cross to bear,
for Christ our Lord.
4 Christ for the world! we sing;
the world to Christ we bring
with joyful song--
the newborn souls whose days,
reclaimed from error's ways,
inspired with hope and praise,
to Christ belong.

Christ Is Alive!
Author: Brian Wren Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 54 hymnals First Line: Christ is alive! Let Christians sing Lyrics: 1 Christ is alive! Let Christians sing.
His cross stands empty to the sky.
Let streets and homes with praises ring.
Love, drowned in death, shall never die.
2 Christ is alive! No longer bound
to distant years in Palestine,
but saving, healing, here and now,
and touching every place and time.
3 In every insult, rift, and war,
where color, scorn or wealth divide,
Christ suffers still, yet loves the more,
and lives, where even hpe has died.
4 Women and men, in age and youth,
can feel the Spirit, hear the call,
and find the way, the life, the truth,
revealed in Jesus, freed for all.
5 Christ is alive and comes to bring
good news to this and every age,
till earth and sky and ocean ring
with joy, with justice, love and praise.

God of Grace and God of Glory
Author: Harry E. Fosdick Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 155 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God of grace and God of glory,
on your people pour your power;
crown your ancient Church’s story;
bring her bud to glorious flower.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
for the facing of this hour,
for the facing of this hour.
2 Lo! the hosts of evil round us
scorn your Christ, assail his ways!
Fears and doubts too long have bound us--
free our hearts to work and praise.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
for the living of these days,
for the living of these days.
3 Cure your children’s warring madness,
bend our pride to your control;
shame our wanton, selfish gladness,
rich in things and poor in soul.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
lest we miss your kingdom's goal,
lest we miss your kingdom’s goal.
4 Save us from weak resignation
to the evils we deplore;
let the gift of your salvation
be our glory evermore.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
serving you whom we adore,
serving you whom we adore.

Psalm 63: God is My Great Desire
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: God is my great desire Lyrics: 1 God is my great desire,
his face I seek the first;
to him my heart and soul aspire,
for him I thirst.
As one in desert lands,
whose very flesh is flame,
in burning love I lift my hands
and bless his name.
2 God is my true delight,
my richest feast his praise,
through silent watches of the night,
through all my days.
To him my spirit clings,
on him my soul is cast;
beneath the shadow of his wings
he holds me fast.
3 God is my strong defense
in every evil hour;
in him I face with confidence
the tempter's power.
I trust his mercy sure
with truth and triumph crowned:
my hope and joy forevermore
in him are found.
