| | Jesus Shall Reign | Jesus shall reign where'er the sun | | | | English | Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 | Jesus shall reign where’er the sun ... | 8.8.8.8 | Job 3:17-18I appreciate the context, but I need to note that Job 3 is actually Job's lament cursing the day of his birth and wishing for death - it's one of the darkest passages in Scripture. "Jesus Shall Reign" is a triumphant hymn about Christ's universal kingdom based on Psalm 72. These texts don't have a meaningful thematic or theological connection.
If this hymn appears in search results for Job 3, it may be due to a database error or algorithmic mismatch rather than an actual scriptural relationship. I'd recommend reviewing why this pairing occurred rather than creating an explanation that would mislead users about a connection that doesn't exist. | | | Seasons and Feasts Ascension; Seasons and Feasts Christ the King; Holy Name | | DUKE STREET |   | | | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1917 | 0 | 57833 | 7 |
