HJesus shall reign where’er the sun

150
				L.M.

1	Jesus shall reign where’er the sun
	Doth 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 every morning sacrifice.

3	People and realms of every tongue
	Dwell on His love with sweetest song;
	And infant voices shall proclaim
	Their early blessings on His Name.

4	Blessings abound wher’er He reigns;
	The prisoner leaps to loose his chains;
	The weary find eternal rest,
	And all the sons of want are blest.

5	Where He displays His healing power,
	Death and the curse are known no more:
	In Him the tribes of Adam boast
	More blessings than their father lost.

6	Let every creature rise and bring
	Peculiar honors to our King;
	Angels descend with songs again,
	And earth repeat the loud amen!

							I. Watts.
