Great God, whose universal sway

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #P.LXXII.I (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Kingdom of Christ Lyrics: 1 Great God, whose universal sway The known and unknown worlds obey, Now give the kingdom to thy Son, Extend his pow'r, exalt his throne. 2 Thy sceptre well becomes his hands, All heav'n submits to his commands; His justice shall defend the poor, And pride and rage prevail no more. 3 With pow'r he vindiates the just, And treads th'oppressor in the dust; His worship and his far shall last, Till hours and years, and time be past. 4 Like rain on meadows, newly mown, So shall he send his influence down; His grace on fainting souls distils, Like heav'nly dew on thirsty hills. 5 The heathen lands that lie beneath The shades of overspreading death, Revive at his first dawning light, And deserts blossom at the sight. 6 The saints shall flourish in his days, Drest in the robes of joy and praise; Peace, like a river from his throne Shall flow to nations yet unknown. Scripture: Psalm 72:1-6 Languages: English

Comfort, Comfort Ye My People

Author: Johannes Olearius; Miss Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #3 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Topics: Kingdom of Christ Lyrics: 1 Comfort, comfort ye my people, Speak ye peace, thus saith our God; Comfort those who sit in darkness, Mourning 'neath their sorrows' load; Speak ye to Jerusalem Of the peace that waits for them; Tell her that her sins I cover, And her warfare now is over. 2 For the herald's voice is crying In the desert far and near, Bidding all men to repentance, Since the kingdom now is here. O that warning cry obey! Now prepare for God a way! Let the valleys rise to meet Him, And the hills bow down to greet Him. 3 Make ye straight what long was crooked, Make the rougher places plain: Let your hearts be true and humble, As befits His holy reign, For the glory of the Lord Now o'er earth is shed abroad, And all flesh shall see the token That His Word is never broken. Amen. Scripture: Isaiah 40:1-10 Languages: English Tune Title: WERDE MUNTER, MEIN GEMUTHE

Thy Scepter, Jesus, Shall Extend

Author: Frans Mikael Franzen; Claude W. Foss Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #265 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Topics: Kingdom of Christ Lyrics: 1 Thy scepter, Jesus, shall extend As far as day prevaileth; Thy glorious kingdom, without end, Shall stand when all else faileth; Thy blessed Name shall be confessed, And round Thy cross, forever blest, Shall kings and people gather. 2 The child when born to Thee we take, To Thee in death we hasten; In joy we often Thee forsake, But not when sorrows chasten. Where truth and virtue are oppressed, Where sorrow dwells, pain and unrest, Thy help alone availeth. 3 Come, Jesus, then, in weal and woe, In life and death be near us; Thy grace upon our hearts bestow, And let Thy Spirit cheer us, For every conflict strength afford, And gather us in peace, O Lord, When all the world Thou judgest. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ES IST GEWISSLICH AN DER ZEIT
