Sing we the King who is coming to reign

1
Sing we the King who is coming to reign,
Glory to Jesus, the Lamb that was slain;
Righteousness, peace then His empire shall bring,
Joy to the nations when Jesus is King.
  Come let us sing: Praise to our King,
Jesus our King, Jesus our King:
This is our song, who to Jesus belong:
  Glory to Jesus, to Jesus our King.
2
All men shall dwell in His marvelous light,
Races long severed His love shall unite,
Justice and truth from His scepter shall spring,
Wrong shall be ended when Jesus is King.
3
All shall be well in His kingdom of peace,
Freedom shall flourish and wisdom increase,
Foe shall be friend when His triumph we sing,
Sword shall be sickle when Jesus is King.
4
Knowledge and fear of the Lord then shall be
As the deep waters that cover the sea;
All things shall be in the splendor of spring
And all harmonious when Jesus is King.
5
Kingdom of Christ, for thy coming we pray,
Hasten, O Father, the dawn of the day
When this new song Thy creation shall sing,
Satan is vanquished and Jesus is King.

Thanks for the postings of this great song, I've been looking for it for a long time. Can you provide me with the music along with the lyrics or direct me where to get it or buy the hymnal that has song? Another song I've been looking and I can't find is: "Anywhere is Home". Earthly wealth and fame may never come to me..

This is a powerful hymn. It carries my sorrow away anytime I sing it. God bless the writer of the words and composer of the tune. I love this hymn.

it is interesting to sing any song, for generally, all we do is repeat the words - the sounds - and every now and then there is a glimmer of insight into the meaning. for this song, if we really understood that God's plan and heart's desire for mankind is to make man one with Him in Life and Nature, and to be one with Him in man's spirit, and to be one with man now and in the future, we would be converted from word readers to "true believers" - ones proclaiming great praise. this song does that. now, we must turn to the Lord, call on Him, touching Him in our spirit, where the Life-Giving Spirit dwells, and then we could shout this song to others, knowing the truth of the words. I recommend the one signing this song simply read the words every now and then, not just sing them. read them to the paper you are looking at. then read them to the room you are in. then read them and proclaim them to the God of this universe. not once. but several times. and in doing so, you will pass from the old man, old nature, curse of the flesh, and you will touch the Life-Giving Spirit, in your spirit. Amen!
