| Text: | Christ is King |
| Author: | C. Austin Miles |
| Tune: | [All the nations of the earth rejoice and sing] |
| Composer: | J. Howard Entwisle |
1 All the nations of the earth rejoice and sing,
Through the radiant spheres of light the echoes ring,
Send the news from shore to shore,
Jesus reigns forever more,
Send the glorious tidings swelling “Christ is King.”
Refrain:
Christ is King! Christ is King!
Through the radiant spheres of light his praises ring,
Send the news from shore to shore,
Jesus reigns forevermore,
Send the glorious tidings swelling “Christ is King.”
2 Crucified on Calvary ‘neath darken’d sky,—
Can it be that Jesus reigns enthroned on high?
Yes! The Lord of life and love,
On the royal throne above,
Hears the shouts of angels ringing “Christ is King.” [Refrain]
3 Mingling with the ransomed host around the throne,
We shall join the song of angels with our own.
When his purity we share,
We his glory shall declare,
And shall join the mighty chorus “Christ is King.” [Refrain]
