Sunshine ‎#39

39. Jesus Reigns

1 Jesus reigns forever, mighty Victor still;
Tempest, wave and sunshine shall His word fulfill;
Pardon and salvation,
Joy and consolation,
Bless the happy people who obey His will.

Refrain:
Jesus reigns, our mighty King forever!
Jesus reigns! transcendent in His love.
Let our praises, blending,
Join the song unending,
Swell the hallelujahs of the world above.

2 Jesus reigns forever, blessed Prince of Peace;
Thro’ the world’s dominions may His word increase;
By His grace unfailing,
Over sin prevailing,
Wonderful His kingdom, nevermore to cease. [Refrain]

3 Jesus reigns forever on His heav’nly throne;
Yield Him glad allegiance, serving Him alone;
When the finished story
Shall record His glory,
We shall sing His mercy, and His goodness own. [Refrain]
