Jesus shall reign where’er the sun
Doth his successive journeys nun;
His kingdom stretch from shore to shore,
Till moon shall rise and set no more.

For him shall endless pray'r be made,
And praises throng to crown his head;
His name like sweet perfume shall rise
With evry morning sacrifice.

People and realms of ev'ry tongue
Dwel on his love with sweetest song
And infant voices shall proclaim,
their young hosannas to his name.

Blessings abound where'er he reigns;
the prisoner leaps to lose his chains,
the weary find eternal rest,
And all the sons of want are blest.

Where He displays his healing pow'r
Death and the curse are known no more,
In him the tribes of Adam boast
More blessings than their father lost.

Let ev'ry creature rise and bring
Its grateful honours to our Kin
Angels descend with songs again,
And earth prolong the joyful strain.
