Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: Church Book #206 (1890) Meter: 8.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Hark, ten thousand harps and voices
Sound the note of praise above!
Jesus reigns, and heaven rejoices;
Jesus reigns, the God of love.
See, He sits on yonder throne;
Jesus rules the world alone.
2 Jesus, hail! whose glory brightens
All above, and makes it fair:
Lord of life, thy smile enlightens,
Cheers and charms Thy people here.
When we think of Love like Thine,
Lord, we own it Love divine.
3 King of glory, reign for ever;
Thine an everlasting crown;
Nothing from Thy love shall sever
Those whom Thou hast made Thine own;
Happy objects of Thy grace
Destined to behold Thy face.
4 Saviour, hasten Thine appearing;
Bring, O bring the glorious day,
When, the awful summons hearing,
Heaven and earth shall pass away:
Then, with golden harps, we'll sing,
"Glory, glory,to our King." Topics: Kingdom and Glory of Christ; Lent, Third Sunday; Sunday after Ascension Languages: English Tune Title: KROSSING
