以撒華茲(4)-詩歌故事:耶穌要掌權

是否感嘆世局紊亂，人生無常？

這是因為世人拒絕主耶穌這和平的君，

所以今世宛如煞不住車的列車，衝往更混亂的局面去。

這詩分享給您，一天基督這平安的王要復興全地，

屆時萬物都要得復興。

歌詞：

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 princes 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 prisoner leaps to lose his chains,
The weary find eternal rest,
And all the sons of want are blest.
5
Where He displays His healing power
Death and the curse are known no more;
In Him the tribes of Adam boast
More blessings than their father lost.
6
Let every creature rise and bring
Peculiar honors to our King;
Angels descend with songs again,
And earth repeat the loud Amen.
