Text: | Kingdom for Us to Possess |
Author: | W. C. Martin |
Tune: | [There are lonely hearts near us to cherish] |
Composer: | Ira B. Wilson |
1 There are lonely hearts near us to cherish,
There are sad hearts to comfort and bless,
There are friends who are ready to perish,
These are kingdoms for us to possess.
Chorus:
All kingdoms for us to possess,
All kingdoms to enter and bless,
These souls all about us,
Who trust us or doubt us,
Are kingdoms to govern and bless.
2 There are friends in the seat of the scornful,
There are friends who are living in sin,
There are penitents humble and mournful,—
These are all priceless kingdoms to win. [Chorus]
3 There are nations that know not the story
Of the Savior who came from above,
To redeem us and clothe us with glory,—
We may sway there the sceptre of love. [Chorus]
