1
Thy kingdom come O God
Thy rule O Christ begin
Break with Thine iron rod
The tyrannies of sin
2
Where is Thy reign of peace
And purity and love
When shall all hatred cease
As in the realms above
3
When comes the promised time
That war shall be no more
Oppression lust and crime
Shall flee Thy face before
4
We pray Thee Lord arise
And come in Thy great might
Revive our longing eyes
Which languish for Thy sight
5
Men scorn Thy sacred name
And wolves devour Thy fold
By many deeds of shame
We learn that love grows cold
6
O’er heathen lands afar
Thick darkness broodeth yet
Arise O Morning Star
Arise and never set
