1 verse:
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.
Chorus:
He shall reign in glory,
Crowned with grace and might!
Bless His name,
And praise the sovereign King!
He shall reign forever
With His chosen Bride;
All the Earth shall sing
That Jesus is the King!
2* verse:
To Him shall endless prayer be made,
And praises throng to crown His head.
His name like sweet perfume shall rise
With every morning sacrifice.
3 verse:
People and realms of every tongue
Dwell on His love with sweetest song,
And infant voices shall proclaim
Their early blessings on His name!
4* verse:
Blessings abound where'er He reigns:
The prisoners leap to lose their chains,
The weary find eternal rest,
And all who suffer want are blest!
5 verse:
Let every creature rise and bring
The highest honors to our King,
Angels descend with songs again,
And Earth repeat the loud 'Amen!'
