Chorus: Oh, the kingdom of our God shall be vanquish’d, never! never! But still onward o’er the nations it shall roll in endless sway; And our glorious Messiah, on his throne shall reign forever, While the angel host with earth’s redeem’d shall swell the joyful lay. 2 He beheld, and lo! a stone rolling down from mountain’s side, Crush’d the image into powder, and like chaff ‘twas scatter’d far; And the stone, like mountain rising, filled the earth both far and wide, Emblem that all kings and nations, homage give to Bethle’m’s star. [Chorus] 3 King of kings and Lord of lords! saints and angels join in praise, Jesus Christ, who hath redeem’d us unto glory evermore; We will join the swelling chorus, and to heav’n an anthem raise, Till the kingdom of our God shall fill the earth from shore to shore.
