Author: Bryan J. Leech Hymnal: Hymns for the Living Church #492 (1974) Meter: 14.12.12.14 First Line: Thro' all the world let every nation sing to God the King Lyrics: 1 Thro' all the world let every nation sing to God the King,
As Lord may Christ preside where now He is defied,
And sov'reign place His throne in lands not yet His own.
Tho' all the world let every nation sing to God the King.
2 Thro' all the world let every man express true righteousness,
May Christ now be the norm to which all men conform,
His passion cure the sin that festers from within.
Thro' all the world let every man express true righteousness.
3 Thro' all the world let every man embrace the gift of grace,
May Christ's great light consume our darkest cities' gloom,
May Christ's great love efface hostilities of race.
Thro' all the world let every man embrace the gift of grace.
4 If all the world in every part shall hear, and God revere,
We must be moved to care, and in His name to share
The liberating word which must be told abroad.
Then all the world in every part shall hear, and God revere.
