Jesus Shall Reign Where'er The Sun
Verse 1
Jesus shall reign where'er the sun Doth his successive journeys run; His kingdom stretch from shore to shore, Till sun shall rise and set no more.
Verse 2
For Him shall endless prayer be made, And praises throng to crown His head; His name like sweet perfume shall rise With every morning sacrifice.
Verse 3
People and realms of every tongue Dwell on His love with sweetest song; And infant voices shall proclaim Their young hosannas to His name.
Verse 4
Blessings abound where'er He reigns; The prisoner leaps to lose his chains; The weary find eternal rest; And all the sons of want are blest.
Verse 5
Where He displays His healing power; Death and the curse are known no more, In Him the tribes of Adam boast More blessings than their father lost.
Verse 6
Let every creature rise and bring, Its greatest honours to our King; Angels descend with songs again, And earth prolong the joyful strain.
