"He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass.... He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth. They that dwell in the wilderness shall bow before Him; and His enemies shall lick the dust.... Yea, all kings shall fall down before Him: all nations shall serve Him" (Psalm 72:8-11). "And they clothed Him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about His head, and began to salute Him, Hail, King of the Jews!" (Mark 15:17,18).
Our Lord shall have dominion
In every place on earth,
Though popular opinion
Has mocked our Savior's worth.
The crown upon His head
Shall not be made of thorn;
A sovereign crown instead
By Jesus shall be worn.
Though opposition must
Object to His return,
His foes shall lick the dust,
And shall no longer spurn.
Though dominion is deferred,
Yet as rain comes down on grass,
Our Lord shall keep His word,
And it all shall come to pass.
