Author: Darley Terry Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: The Lord is king! I own His pow'r Lyrics: 1. The Lord is king! I own His pow’r, His right to rule each day and hour; I own His claim on heart and will, And His demands I would fulfill. 2. He claims my heart, to keep it clean From all defiling taint of sin; He claims my will, that I may prove How swift obedience answers love. 3. He claims my hands for active life In noble deeds and worthy strife; He claims my feet, that in His ways I may walk boldly all my days. 4. He claims my lips, that purest word In all my converse may be heard; My motives, passions, thoughts, that these My inner life, my King may please. 5. He claims the brightness of my youth, My earnest strivings after truth, My joys, my toil, my craftsman’s skill; All have their place, and serve His will. 6. O Lord my king, I turn to Thee; Thy loyal service makes me free; My daily task Thou shalt assign; For heart and will and life are Thine.
