Jesus, immortal King, arise; Assert Thy rightful sway; Till earth, subdued, its tribute brings, And distant lands obey. Ride forth, victorious Conqu'ror, ride Till all Thy foes submit, And all the powers of hell resign Their trophies at Thy feet. Send forth Thy word, and let it fly The spacious earth around, Till every soul beneath the sun Shall hear the joyful sound. O may the great Redeemer's name Through every clime be known, And heathen gods, forsaken, fall, And Jesus reign alone. From sea to sea, from shore to shore, Be Thou, O Christ, adored, And earth, with all her millions, shout Hosannas to the Lord. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...CALLING DREAMS by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON THE MEANING OF THE LOOK by ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING EPITAPH ON S.P., A CHILD OF QUEEN ELIZABETH'S CHAPEL by BEN JONSON COLIN AND LUCY by THOMAS TICKELL IMITATIONS OF SHAKESPEARE: A STORM by JOHN ARMSTRONG |
