Hymn 114
Hail to the Lord’s anointed,
Alafia fun Jesu
- Hail to the Lord’s anointed,
great David’s greater Son!
Hail in the time appointed,
His reign on earth begun!
He comes to break oppression,
to set the captive free;
To take away transgression
and rule in equity. - Arabia’s desert ranger
to Him shall bow the knee;
The Ethiopian stranger
His glory come to see;
With offerings of devotion
ships from the isles shall meet,
To pour the wealth of oceans
in worship at His feet. - Kings shall fall down before Him,
and gold and incense bring;
All nations shall adore Him,
His praise all people sing;
With offerings of devotion
ships from the isles shall meet,
To pour the wealth of oceans
in tribute at His feet. - For Him shall prayer unceasing
and daily vows ascend;
His kingdom still increasing,
a kingdom without end:
O’er every foe victorious,
He on His throne shall rest;
From age to age more glorious,
all blessing and all blest. Amen.
