He shall reign o'er all the earth,

| 1. | He shall reign o'er all the earth, |
| | He who wore the crown of thorn, |
| | Whom they deemed of little worth, |
| | Whom they met with hate and scorn; |
| | Send the tidings forth, that all |
| | Humbly at His feet may fall. |
| 2. | Long His heritage hath lain |
| | 'Neath the false usurper's sway; |
| | He will claim it back again, |
| | Rout the foes and win the day. |
| | Send the tidings forth, that all |
| | Humbly at His feet may fall. |
| 3. | Then, beneath His rule of peace |
| | Heaven shall smile, and earth shall |
| | sing, |
| | Ever yielding rich increase |
| | To the honor of he King. |
| | Send the tidings forth, that all |
| | Humbly at His feet may fall. |
| 4. | Hasten, Lord, the wondrous hour, |
| | Bid it strike from shore to shore, |
| | Thine the kingdom and the power, |
| | Thine the glory evermore. |
| | Bow each rebel heart, that all |
| | At Thy feet adoring fall. |
