He shall reign from pole to pole
With illimitable sway;
He shall reign when, like a scroll,
Heav'n and earth have passed away,
Then the end; beneath His rod,
Man's last enemy shall fall;
Halelujah! Christ in God,
God in Christ, is all in all.
HYMN 46.
High let us swell our tuneful notes,
And join th' angelic throng,
For angels no such love have known,
T'awake a cheerful song.
Good-will to sinful men is shown,
And peace on earth is giv'n;
For, lo! th' incarnate Saviour comes
With messages from Heav'n.
Justice and grace, with sweet accord,
· His rising beams adorn;
Let Heav'n and earth in concert join,
To us a Child is born.
Glory to God in highest strains,
In highest worlds be paid;
His glory by our lips proclaim'd,
And by our lives display'd.
HYMN 47.
Holiest! breathe an ev'ning blessing,
Ere repose our spirits seal,
Sin, and want, we come confessing,
