1. Hear the royal proclamation,
   The glad tidings of salvation,
   Publishing to every creature,
   To the ruined sons of nature;

2. See the royal banner flying,
   Hear the heralds loudly crying,
   "Rebel sinners, royal favor
   Now is offered by the Savior."

3. Hear, ye sons of wrath and ruin,
   Who have wrought your own undoing,
   Here is life and free salvation,
   Offered to the whole creation.

4. Turn unto the Lord most holy,
   Shun the paths of vice and folly;
   Turn, or you are lost for ever,
   O! now turn to God the Savior.

Refrain:

   Jesus reigns, he reigns victorious,
   Over heaven and earth most glorious, Jesus reigns.
