<p>Jesus, the Conqueror, reigns,<br>
In glorious strength arrayed,<br>
His kingdom over all maintains,<br>
And bids the earth be glad.<br>
Ye sons of men, rejoice<br>
In Jesus&#8217; mighty love,<br>
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice<br>
To Him who rules above.</p>
<p>Extol His kingly power,<br>
Kiss the exalted Son,<br>
Who died, and lives, to die no more,<br>
High on His Father&#8217;s throne;<br>
Our advocate with God,<br>
He undertakes our cause,<br>
And spreads through all the earth abroad<br>
The victory of His cross.</p>
<p>That bloody banner see,<br>
And in your Captain&#8217;s sight,<br>
Fight the good fight of faith with me,<br>
My fellow soldiers, fight!<br>
In mighty phalanx joined,<br>
To battle all proceed;<br>
Armed with the unconquerable mind<br>
Which was in Christ your Head.</p>
<p>Urge on your rapid course,<br>
Ye blood besprinkled bands;<br>
The heavenly kingdom suffers force,<br>
&#8217;Tis seized by violent hands;<br>
See there the starry crown<br>
That glitters through the skies!<br>
Satan, the world, and sin, tread down,<br>
And take the glorious prize.</p>
<p>Through much distress and pain,<br>
Through many a conflict here,<br>
Through blood, ye must the entrance gain;<br>
Yet, O disdain to fear!<br>
Courage! your Captain cries,<br>
Who all your toil foreknew<br>
Toil ye shall have; yet all despise,<br>
I have overcome for you.</p>
<p>The world cannot withstand<br>
Its ancient conqueror,<br>
The world must sink beneath<br>
The hand which arms us for the war;<br>
This is the victory!<br>
Before our faith they fall;<br>
Jesus hath died for you and me;<br>
Believe, and conquer all!</p>
