Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #529 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Kingdom and Church of Christ Missionary Hymn Lyrics: 1 Jesus shall reign, where'er the sun Does his successive journies 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 grateful song; And with united hearts proclaim That grace and truth by Jesus came. 3 Blessings abound where'er he reigns: The pris'ner leaps to lose his chains; The weary find eternal rest, And all who suffer want are blest. 4 Where he displays his healing pow'r; The sting of death is known no more: In him the sons of Adam boast More blessings than their father lost.

Ye Messengers of Christ

Hark! the song of Jubilee

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #530 (1828) Meter: Irregular Topics: Kingdom and Church of Christ Missionary Hymn Lyrics: 1 Hark! the song of Jubilee, Loud as mighty thunders roar, Or the fullness of the sea, When it breaks upon the shore:-- Hallelujah! for the Lord, God omnipotent, shall reign; Hallelujah! let the word Echo round the earth and main. 2 Hallelujah! hark! the sound, From the depths unto the skies, Wakes above, beneath, around All creation's harmonies;-- See Jehovah's banner furl'd, Sheath'd his sword: he speaks--'tis done; And the kingdoms of this world Are the kingdoms of his Son. 3 He shall reign from pole to pole With illimitable sway; He shall reign, when like a scroll Yonder heav'ns have pass'd away:-- Then the end;--beneath his rod Man's last enemy shall fall; Hallelujah! Christ in God, God in Christ is all in all. Scripture: Revelation 14:2

Rejoice, the Saviour reigns

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #534 (1828) Meter: Irregular Topics: Kingdom and Church of Christ Missionary Hymn Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, the Saviour reigns Among the sons of men; He breaks the pris'ners chains, And makes them free again: Let hell oppose God's only Son, In spite of foes his cause goes on. 2 The baffled prince of hell In vain new projects tries, The gospel to repel, By cruelties and lies: Th'infernal gates shall rage in vain; Conquest awaits the Lamb once slain. 3 He died, but soon arose Triumphant o'er the grave: And now himself he shows Omnipotent to save: Let rebels kiss the victor's feet; Eternal bliss his subjects meet. 4 All pow'r is in his hand, His people to defend; To his most high command Shall millions more attend: All heaven with smiles approve his cause; And distant isles receive his laws. 5 This little seed from heaven Shall soon become a tree; This ever blessed leaven Diffus'd abroad must be; Till God the Son shall come again, It must go on. Amen, amen!

Hark! what triumphant strains are these

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #531 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Kingdom and Church of Christ Missionary Hymn Lyrics: 1 Hark! what triumphant strains are these, Which echo through the vault of heaven? "To Jesus once on Calvary slain, The kingdoms of the earth are given." 2 Hark! the new song before the throne, Which only the redeem'd can raise; Angels may tune their golden harps, But cannot reach these notes of praise. 3 They worship our exalted Lord, And hail him universal King; But saints--the purchase of his blood, Can strike a sweeter, nobler string. 4 The wonders of his dying love. Their hallelujahs loud proclaim, While with extatic joy they shout New honours to his sacred name. 5 From every kindred, every tongue, From barbarous nations long unknown, From polish'd Greeks and Scythians rude, A countless host surround the throne. 6 In robes of spotless white array'd, And palms of victory in their hand, With holy wonder and delight, The trophies of his grace they stand. 7 And still till time shall be mo more, The mighty concourse shall increase; And Jesus gain, in heathen lands, New subjects of the reign of peace. Scripture: Revelation 14:3

Maker, and sov'reign Lord

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #176 (1814) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Kingdom and Church of Christ Lyrics: 1 Maker, and sov’reign Lord Of heav’n, and earth, and seas! Thy providence confirms thy Word, And answers thy decrees. 2 Why did the Gentiles rage, And Jews, with one accord, Bend all their counsels to destroy Th’ anointed of the Lord? 3 Rulers and kings agree To form a vain design; Against the Lord their pow'rs unite, Against his Christ they join. 4 The Lord derides their rage, And will support his throne; He, that hath rais'd him from the dead Hath own'd him for his Son. 5 He asks, and God bestows A large inheritance. Far as the earth's remotest ends His kingdom shall advance. Languages: English

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #545 (1828) Meter: Irregular Topics: Kingdom and Church of Christ Missionary Hymn Lyrics: 1 Go, ye messengers of God, Like the beams of morning fly; Take the wonder-working rod, Wave the banner cross on high! 2 Go to many a tropic isle On the bosom of the deep; Where the skies for ever smile And the blacks for ever weep. 3 Where the golden gates of day Open on the balmy East, Wide the bleeding cross display, Spread the Gospel’s richest feast. 4 Visit ev'ry heathen soil, Ev'ry barren, burning strans,-- Bid each dreary region smile, Lovely as the promis'd land. 5 In yon wilds of stream and shade, Many an Indian wigwam trace; And with words of love persuade Savages to sue for grace. 6 Cirumnavigate the Ball-- Visit ev'ry soil and sea; Preach the cross of Christ to all; Jesus’ love is full and free.

High on his everlasting throne

Great God! whose universal sway

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #179 (1814) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Kingdom and Church of Christ Lyrics: 1 Great God! whose universal sway The known and unknown worlds obey; Entrust the kingdom of thy Son, Till ev'ry land his laws shall own. 2 They form to righteousness the mind, To all that's candid, gentle, kind; Inspire with love the human breast, And stormy passions sooth to rest. 3 As gentle rain on parching ground, His gospel sheds its influence round; Its grace on fainting souls distils, Like heav'nly dew on thirsty hills 4 The heathen lands, that lie beneath The shades of darkness and of death, Revive at its first dawning light, and deserts blossom at the sight. 5 The saints shall flourish in his days, Dress'd in the robes of joy and praise; Peace, like a river, from his throne, Shall flow to nations yet unknown.
