Lyrics
The Long Amen
Lyricist: Isaac Watts
Composer: Tara Buzash
Our God shall reign where’er the sun
Doth His successive journeys run
His kingdom stretch from shore to shore
‘Til moons shall wax and wane no more
All people shall with joyful tongue
Dwell on His love with sweetest song
And infant voices shall proclaim
Their early blessings on His name
For blessings flow where’er He reigns
The pris’ner leaps to loose his chains
The weary find eternal rest
And all the sons of want are blest
Let every creature rise and bring
Peculiar honors to our king
Let angel songs be heard again
And earth repeat The Long Amen.
