Jesus Shall Reign

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.

People and realms of every tongue

Dwell on His love with sweetest song;

And infant voices shall proclaim

Their earthly blessings on His name.

Blessings abound where’er He reigns:

The pris’ners leap to lose their chains,

The weary find eternal rest,

And all who suffer want are blest.

Let every creature rise and bring

Honors peculiar to our King;

Angels descend with songs again,

And earth repeat the loud amen.
