Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,800 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Scripture: Hebrews 1:8 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 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 children's voices shall proclaim Their early blessings on his name. 4 Blessings abound where'er he reigns, The pris'ners leap to lose their chains; The weary find eternal rest, And all who suffer want are blest. 5 Let ev'ry creature rise and bring Their joyful praises to our King; Angels descend with songs again, And earth repeat the loud amen!

O may we stand around thy throne, and see thy glory there! 5 Jesu, our only joy be thou, as thou our prize wilt be; in thee be all our glory now and through eternity. 6 All praise to thee who art gone up triumphantly to heaven; all praise to God the Father's name, and Holy Ghost be given.

Jesus Glorified with Glory

Meter: Irregular Appears in 551 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Scripture: Hebrews 1:5 First Line: Hail the day that sees him rise Lyrics: 1 Hail the day that sees him rise, Ravish'd from our wishful eyes! Christ a while to mortals giv'n, Reascends his native heav'n: There the pompous triumph waits, Lift your heads, eternal gates! Wide unfold the radiant scene, Take the King of glory in! 2 Him tho' highest heaven receives, Still he loves the earth he leaves; Tho' returning to his throne, Still he calls mankind his own: Still for us he intercedes, Prevalent his death he pleads; Next himself prepares our place, Harbinger of human race. 3 Master (may we ever say) Taken from our head to day; See thy faithful servants, see, Ever gazing up to thee! Grant, tho' parted from our sight, High above yon azure height: Grant our souls may thither rise, Foll'wing thee beyond the skies. 4 Ever upward let us move, Wafted on the wings of love; Looking when our Lord shall come, Longing, gasping after home, There we shall with thee remain, Partners of thine endless reign; There thy face unclouded see, Find our heav'n of heav'n in thee.
