"Jesus reigns"

Christ is God

Author: Robert Robinson Appears in 290 hymnals Topics: Resurrection and Reign First Line: Mighty God! while angels bless thee Lyrics: 1 Mighty God! while angels bless thee, May a mortal lisp thy name? Lord of men, as well as angels! Thou art every creature's theme: Lord of every land and nation Ancient of eternal days! Sounded through the wide creation Be thy just and awful praise. 2 For the grandeur of thy nature, Grand, beyond a seraph's thought; For the wonders of creation, Works with skill and kindness wrought; For thy providence, that governs Through thine empire's wide domain, Wings an angel, guides a sparrow; Blessed be thy gentle reign. 3 For thy rich, thy free redemption, Bright, though vailed in darkness long, Thought is poor, and poor expression; Who can sing that wondrous song? Brightness of thy Father's glory! Shall thy praise unuttered lie? Break, my tongue! such guilty silence, Sing the Lord who came to die: 4 From the highest throne of glory, To the cross of deepest woe, Came to ransom guilty captives! Flow, my praise! for ever flow: Re-ascend, immortal Saviour! Leave thy footstool, take thy throne; Thence return and reign for ever; Be the kingdom all thine own! Used With Tune: AUTUMN

Hark! how the heavenly anthem drowns all music but its own. Awake, my soul, and sing of him who died for thee and hail him as thy matchless King through all eternity. 2 Crown him the Lord of life, who triumphed o'er the grave, and rose victorious in the strife for those he came to save; his glories now we sing who died and rose on high, who died eternal life to bring, and lives that death may die. 3 Crown him the Lord of peace, whose power a scepter sways from pole to pole, that wars may cease, and all be prayer and praise. His reign shall no end, and round his pieced feet fair flowers of paradise extend their fragrance ever sweet. 4 Crown him the Lord of love; behold his hands and side, those wounds, yet visible above, in beauty glorified. All hail, Redeemer, hail! for thou hast died for me; thy praise and glory shall not fail throughout eternity. Used With Tune: DIADEMATA
