Jesus Shall Reign Where'er the Sun

Jesus Shall Reign Where'er the Sun

Isaac Watts, 1719

1 Jesus shall reign where’er the sun

Does its 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 Blessings abound where’er he reigns:

The pris’ner leap to lose their chains,

The weary find eternal rest,

And all the sons of want are blest.

4 Let every creature rise and bring

Peculiar honors to our King,

Angels descend with songs again,

And earth repeat the loud Amen.
