Jesus shall reign
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 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 his successive journeys run;
his kingdom stretch from shore to shore,
till moons shall wax and wane no more.
2 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.
3 Blessings abound where'er he reigns:
the pris'ners leap to lose their chains;
the weary find eternal rest,
and all the humble poor are blest.
4 To him shall endless prayer be made,
and praises throng to crown his head;
his name like incense shall arise
with ev'ry morning sacrifice.
5 Let ev'ry creature rise and bring
peculiar honours to our King;
angels descend with songs again,
and earth repeat the loud amen. Topics: Ascensiontide; Epiphany; Evangelism; Joy, Praise and Thanksgiving; Morning; Year A Advent 2; Year A Trinity Sunday; Year B Proper 22; Year C Trinity Sunday; Years A, B, and C Epiphany Scripture: Psalm 8:2 Used With Tune: TRURO

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.

to whom this King of triumph comes!

make it a temple, set apart
from earthly use for heaven's employ,
adorned with prayer and love and joy.
4 Redeemer, come! I open wide
my heart to thee: here, Lord, abide!
Let me thy inner presence feel:
thy grace and love in me reveal.
5 So come, my Sovereign; enter in!
Let new and nobler life begin;
thy Holy Spirit guide us on,
until the glorious crown be won.

to see th'approaching Sacrifice.

Your last and fiercest strife is nigh.
The Father on His sapphire throne
awaits His own anointed Son.

bow Your meek head to mortal pain,
then take, O Christ, Your pow'r and reign.

All praise to Him Who built the hills
Author: Dr. H. Bonar Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 17 hymnals Lyrics: 1 All praise to Him Who built the hills;
All praise to Him the streams Who fills;
All praise to Him Who lights each star
That sparkles in the sky afar.
2 All praise to Him Who wakes the morn,
And bids it glow with beams new-born;
Who draws the shadows of the night,
Like curtains, o'er our wearied sight.
3 All praise to Him Whose love hath given,
In Christ His Son, the life of heaven;
Who gives us, for our darkness, light,
And turns to day our deepest night.
4 All praise to Him in love Who came,
To bear our woe, and sin, and shame;
Who lived to die, Who died to rise,
The all-prevailing the sacrifice.
5 All praise to Him Who sheds abroad
Within our hearts the love of God:
The Spirit of all truth and peace,
The fount of joy and holiness.
6 To Father, Son, and Spirit now
Our hands we lift, our knees we bow:
To Thee, blest Trinity, we raise
E'en here, in exile, songs of praise.
Amen. Topics: Adoration; Praise Used With Tune: [All praise to Him Who built the hills]

your goodness in full glory shines:
your truth shall break through every cloud
that veils and darkens your designs.

as mountains their foundations keep;
wise are the wonders of your hands;
your judgments are a mighty deep.

we shall be fed with sweet repast;
there mercy like a river flows
and brings salvation to our taste.
4 Life, like a fountain, rich and free,
springs from the presence of the Lord,
and in your light our souls shall see
the glories promised in your word.
