Jesus is both strong and mighty,
And his government shall stand;
O’er the earth he sways his sceptre,
Creatures bow to his command;
Own their Sovereign,
Yield to him their heart and hand.
Chains of sin he breaks asunder,
Sets the drooping captives free;
Satan drives from his dominion,
makes corruption swifty flee;
Oh what wonders,
He has wrought, my soul, in thee.
From the yoke of sin he saves thee,
While he substitutes his own;
But his burden’s light and easy,
When by faith we put it on:
Holy Jesus,
Let thy will in me be done.
