Hail to the Lord's Anointed!

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 865 hymnals Topics: Names and Office of Christ Anointed First Line: Hail to the Lord's Anointed Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord's Anointed, Great David's greater Son! Hail, in the time appointed, His reign on earth begun! He comes to break oppression, To set the captive free, To take away transgression And rule in equity. 2 He comes with succor speedy To those who suffer wrong; To help the poor and needy, And bid the weak be strong: To give them songs for sighing; Their darkness turn to light, Whose souls, condemned and dying, Were precious in His sight. 3 He shall come down like showers Upon the fruitful earth; And love, joy, hope, like flowers, Spring in His path to birth. Before Him on the mountains Shall peace, the herald, go; And righteousness in fountains From hill to valley flow. 4 To Him shall prayer unceasing And daily vows ascend; His kingdom still increasing, A kingdom without end. The tide of time shall never His covenant remove; His Name shall stand forever,-- That Name to us is Love. Amen. Scripture: Psalm 72 Used With Tune: AURELIA

I came to Jesus, and I drank Of that life-giving stream; My thirst was quenched, my soul revived, And now I live in him. 3 I heard the voice of Jesus say, "I am this dark world’s light; Look unto me, thy morn shall rise, And all thy day be bright."
