138.  Jesus Shall Reign

1
Jesus shall reign where’er the sun
Does his successive journeys run;
His kingdom spread from shore to shore,
Till moons shall wax and wane no more.

2
From north to south mankind will meet
To pay their homage at his feet;
While all the world shall own the Lord,
And savage tribes attend his word.

3
To him shall endless prayer be made,
And endless praises crown his head,
His name like sweet perfume shall rise
With ev’ry morning sacrifice.

4
People and realms of ev’ry tongue
Shall praise his name with sweetest song,
And loud their voices shall proclaim
Honor and blessings on his name.
