76. Jesus, Our Lord Shall Reign

1 Jesus, our Lord shall reign, His kingdom shall increase,
And soon o’er all the world shall fall the balm of peace;
No more shall war be heard in all earth’s green domain,
For Christ shall reign, from bondage give release.

Refrain:
Jesus, our Lord shall reign, we need not be dismayed,
Tho’ foes arise and darts are hurled we will not be afraid;
He is able to deliver us, in His all-glorious day,
For Christ shall reign, for Christ shall reign, shall reign for aye.

2 Jesus, our Lord shall reign, then forward to the field,
Thro’ all the conflict He shall be our strength and shield;
Then of good courage be, and loyal in the fight,
For Christ shall reign, all wrong things He will right. [Refrain]

3 Jesus, our Lord shall reign, then let us joyful be,
And serve our King and bring the fruits of victory;
His armor now put on, and gladly face the foe,
For Christ shall reign, thro’ all the world below. [Refrain]
