Preserve your Word, O Savior
Hail to the Lord's Anointed
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 843 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 72 Lyrics: 1 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.
2 He comes with rescue speedy
to those who suffer wrong,
to help the poor and needy
and bid the weak be strong,
to give them songs for sighing,
their darkness turn to light,
whose souls, condemned and dying,
are precious in his sight.
3 Kings shall bow down before him
and gold and incense bring;
all nations shall adore him,
his praise all people sing.
To him shall prayer unceasing
and daily vows ascend,
his kingdom still increasing,
a kingdom without end.
4 O'er ev'ry foe victorious,
he on his throne shall rest,
from age to age more glorious,
all blessing and all-blest.
The tide of time shall never
his covenant remove;
his name shall stand forever —
that name to us is Love. Topics: Epiphany Used With Tune: FREUT EUCH, IHR LIEBEN CHRISTEN
