THE Lord unto my Lord hath said,

By A Collection of Hymns


      C.M. Psalm cx.1.
      1 THE Lord unto my Lord hath said,
      "Sit thou, in glory sit,
      Till I thine enemies have made
      To bow beneath thy feet."

      2 Jesu, my Lord, mighty to save,
      What can my hopes withstand,
      While thee my Advocate I have,
      Enthroned at God's right hand?

      3 Nature is subject to thy word,
      All power to thee is given,
      The uncontrolled, almighty Lord
      Of hell, and earth, and heaven.

      4 And shall my sins thy will oppose?
      Master, thy right maintain!
      O let not thy usurping foes
      In me thy servant reign!

      5 Come then, and claim me for thine own,
      Saviour, thy right assert!
      Come, gracious Lord, set up thy throne,
      And reign within my heart!

      6 So shall I bless thy pleasing sway;
      And sitting at thy feet,
      Thy laws with all my heart obey,
      With all my soul submit.

      7 So shall I do thy will below,
      As angels do above;
      The virtue of thy passion show,
      The triumphs of thy love

      8 Thy love the conquest more than gains;
      To all I shall proclaim,
      Jesus the King, the conqueror, reigns,
      Bow down to Jesu's name!

      9 To thee shall earth and hell submit,
      And every foe shall fall,
      Till death expires beneath thy feet,
      And God is all in all.
