Jehovah Lord of Heaven and Earth
Jehovah Lord of Heaven and Earth
1. Jehovah, Lord of heav’n and earthThy word of truth proclaim!O may it spread from pole to pole,Till all shall know thy name;O may it spread from pole to pole,Till all shall know thy name.
2. We long to see thy Church increaseThy our new kingdom growThat all the earth may live in peace,And heav’n be seen below;That all the earth may live in peaceAnd heav’n be seen below.
3. Roll on thy work in all its pow’r!The distant nations bring!In thy new kingdom may they standAnd own thee God and King;In thy new kingdom may they standAnd own thee God and King.
4. One gen’ral chorus then shall riseFrom men of ev’ry tongue,And songs of joy salute the skiesBy ev’ry nation sung;And songs of joy salute the skiesBy ev’ry nation sung!
