God may "Fix in every heart of man / [His] everlasting throne"
Metaphor in Context
I will stablish the throne of His kingdom for ever.
--vii. 13.
Son of God's eternal love,
In glorious state descend,
Bring Thy kingdom from above,

Universal Monarch reign,
And put the worldly kingdoms down,
Fix in every heart of man
Thine everlasting throne.
