Author: Nahum Tate; Nicholas Brady Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9396 Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Lyrics: 1 The Lord unto my Lord thus spake:
"Till I Thy foes Thy footstool make,
Sit Thou in state at My right hand;
Supreme in Zion Thou shalt be,
And all Thy proud opposers see
Subjected to Thy just command."
2 "Thee, in Thy power’s triumphant day,
The willing people shall obey;
And, when Thy rising beams they view,
Shall all (redeemed from error’s night)
Appear more numerous and bright
Than crystal drops of morning dew."
3 The Lord hath sworn, nor sworn in vain,
That, like Melchizedek’s, Thy reign
And priesthood shall no period see;
Anointed Prince! Thou, bending low,
Shalt drink where darkest torrents flow,
Then raise Thy head in victory! Languages: English Tune Title: RALEIGH
The Lord Unto My Lord Thus Spake
