Jesus shall reign where’er the sun
Does His successive journeys run,
His kingdom spread from shore to shore
Till moons shall wax and wane no more.
To Him shall endless prayer be made
And praises throng to crown his head;
His name like sweet perfurme shall rise
With every morning sacrifice.
People and realms of every tongue
Dwell on His love with sweetest song,
And infant voices shall proclaim
Their early blessings on His name.
Blessings abound where’er he reigns;
The pris’ner leaps to lose his chains,
The weary find eternal rest,
And all the sons of want are blessed.
Let every creature rise and bring
Peculiar honors to our King,
Angels descend with songs again,
And earth repeat the loud amen!
Listen to the sermon “How Long Till the End?”
