Jesus Shall Reign Wherever The Sun
Does Its Successive Journeys Run,
His Kingdom Stretch 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 Perfume 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 Wherever He Reigns:
The Prisoners Leap To Lose Their Chains,
The Weary Find Eternal Rest,
And All Who Suffer Want Are Blest.
Let Every Creature Rise And Bring
The Highest Honours To Our King,
Angels Descend With Songs Again,
And Earth Repeat The Loud Amen.
