Hymnal: The Silver Chime #110 (1862) First Line: Glad reign, glad reign, glad reign of peace and joy Lyrics: 1 Glad reign, glad reign, glad reign of peace and joy,
Rejoice, rejoice ye people of the Lord,
His arm, His arm will sin's fell pow'r destroy,
Stern death, stern death falls slain by His dread word.
2 Bright morn, bright morn, we herald in thy day,
When Faith and Hope and Love will rule all hearts,
Receive, receive us, make no long delay,
Light shines! light shines! the darkness now departs.
3 Uplift, uplift the standard of our faith,
Blest cross, blest cross, to thee, to thee we'll cling
Thro' fire and tempest, on thro' life and death,
Thine, thine th strength, our souls the offering.
4 Blest cross, no gloom enshrouds thee in this
hour,
O wondrous love that chang'd thy gloom to light,
We feel, we feel thy silent, quick'ning pow'r;
Help, help us, lift from earth her veil of night.
5 He comes! He comes! Messiah, Prince of peace,
On earth, on earth to reign in glory now,
To burst all bonds, all prisoned souls release,
Come forth, come forth, before His footstool bow.
6 Praise Him, praise Him, great Victor, Savior, King
Supreme in might, in majesty and pow'r.
Holy, holy Lord, God omnipotent!
Praise Him, praise Him, O praise Him evermore, Amen.
