Author: W. Gadsby Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #540 (1844) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Publication Date: 1844 First Line: Jesus, the Lord is King Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the Lord, is King,
And be his name adored;
Let Zion with sweet pleasure sing
The honours of her God.
2 His laws are just and mild,
All pregnant with delight;
The church at large, and every child,
Shall prove his burden light.
3 Let Christians all attend
To his commanding voice;
His mercies never have an end;
Then be his ways our choice.
4 On Zion’s hill he reigns,
And still displays his love;
Bids saints remember all his pains,
And lift their hearts above.
