191. Make Jesus King

1 Give Jesus first place in your life from today,
Let Him solve your problems and point out your way;
Your lives to His altar an offering bring,
Proclaim Him your Master,
Make Jesus King!

Refrain:
Make Jesus King!
Make Jesus King!
This be the watchword in service we bring.
Make Jesus King!
Make Jesus King!
Triumphant, all glorious
Make Jesus King.

2 Give Jesus first place, never swerve from the right;
Live purely and truly, trust Him for the might;
Whatever betide you, in confidence sing,
The victory’s coming,—
Make Jesus King! [Refrain]

3 Give Jesus first place, never count it a cross,
For Him just be willing to make all else loss;
As matched with His service earth holds not a thing,
All else will but perish,
Make Jesus King! [Refrain]
