Jesus Shall Reign
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,801 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 25:31 First Line: Jesus shall reign wher'er the sun Lyrics: 1 Jesus shall reign where'er the sun
Does His successive journeys run;
His kingdom stretch from shore to shore,
Till moons shall wax and wane no more.
2 To Him shall endless prayer be made,
And praises throng to crown His head;
His Name like sweet perfume shall rise
With ev'ry morning sacrifice.
3 People and realms of ev'ry tongue
Dwell on His love with sweetest song;
And infant voices shall proclaim
Their early blessings on His Name.
4 Blessings abound where'er He reigns;
The pris'ner leaps to lose his chains;
The weary find eternal rest,
And all who suffer want are blest.
5 Let ev'ry creature rise and bring
Blessing and honor to our King;
Angels descend with songs again,
And earth repeat the loud Amen. Topics: Jesus Christ His Ascension and Reign; Jesus Christ His Name; Worship and Adoration Used With Tune: DUKE STREET

It Came Upon the Midnight Clear
Author: Edmund Hamilton Sears Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 870 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 25:31 Lyrics: 1 It came upon the midnight clear,
that glorious song of old,
from angels bending near the earth,
to touch their harps of gold:
“Peace on the earth, good will to all,
from heaven’s all-gracious King”:
the world in solemn stillness lay,
to hear the angels sing.
2 Still through the cloven skies they come,
with peaceful wings unfurled,
and still their heavenly music floats
o’er all the weary world:
above its sad and lowly plains
they bend on hovering wing,
and ever o’er its Babel sounds
the blessed angels sing.
3 Yet with the woes of sin and strife
the world has suffered long;
beneath the heavenly hymn have rolled
two thousand years of wrong;
and we at war on earth hear not
the tidings that they bring;
O, hush the noise and cease the strife
to hear the angels sing!
4 And you, beneath life’s crushing load,
whose forms are bending low,
who toil along the climbing way
with painful steps and slow,
look now, for glad and golden hours
come swiftly on the wing:
O, rest beside the weary road,
and hear the angels sing.
5 For lo, the days are hastening on,
by prophets seen of old,
when with the ever-circling years
shall come the time foretold,
when peace shall over all the earth
its ancient splendors fling,
and the whole world give back the song
which now the angels sing.

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.

Behold His hands and side,
Rich wounds, yet visible above,
In beauty glorified:

Can fully bear that sight,
But downward bends his burning eye
At mysteries so bright.
3 Crown Him the Lord of peace;
Whose power a scepter sways
From pole to pole, that wars may cease,
Absorbed in prayer and praise:
His reign shall know no end;
And round His piercèd feet
Fair flowers of paradise extend
Their fragrance ever sweet.
4 Crown Him the Lord of years,
The Potentate of time;
Creator of the rolling spheres,
Ineffably sublime.
All hail, Redeemer, hail!
For Thou has died for me;
Thy praise shall never, never fail
Throughout eternity.

and shield my soul from sin.

the murmurs of self-will.

to hasten or control;
O speak, and make me listen,
thou guardian of my soul.

to all who follow thee,
that where thou art in glory,
there shall thy servant be;

as stewards true receive,
and gladly, Lord, as you bless us,
to you our firstfruits give.

to find a balm for woe,
to tend those lost in loneliness
is angels' work below.

the lost to God to bring,
to teach the way of life and peace
it is a Christlike thing.
5 And we believe your Word,
though dim our faith may be.
Whate'er we do for you, O Lord,
we do it gratefully.
