God’s kingdom is God’s reigning
His glory to maintain;
It is His sovereign ruling
His order to sustain.
He exercises fully
His own authority
Within His kingdom ever
And to eternity.
Upon the throne
the center
Of government divine
God reigns
and with His purpose
Brings everything in line.
God’s headship and His lordship
He only can maintain
As King within His kingdom
O’er everything to reign.
By reigning in His kingdom
God worketh all His will
And under His dominion
His purpose doth fulfill.
’Tis only in God’s kingdom
His blessing we may know;
’Tis from His throne almighty
The stream of life doth flow.
Submitted to God’s ruling
All virtue thus will win;
Rebellion to His Headship
Is but the root of sin.
The evil aim of Satan—
God’s throne to overthrow;
Our aim and goal is ever
His rule to fully know.
Within God’s sovereign kingdom
His Christ is magnified;
When Christ in life is reigning
The Father’s glorified.
When God is in dominion
All things are truly blessed;
When Christ for God is reigning.
God’s glory is expressed.
In fulness of the seasons
God’s Christ will head up all.
Then all will own His reigning
And worship
great and small.
Such reign in life and glory
The Church e’en now foretastes
And to His rule submitting
Unto His kingdom hastes.
