Text · Psalm 72
Jesus Shall Reign Where'er the Sun
Jesus shall reign where'er the sun
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 where'er He reigns;
The pris’ner leaps to lose his chains;
The weary find eternal rest,
And all the sons of want are blest.
