“Glory, glory, to our King;”


 
A hymn written by T. Kelly

(1)

Glory, glory, to our King!
    Crowns unfading wreathe His head;
Jesus is the name we sing;
    Jesus risen from the dead;
Jesus, spoiler of the grave;
Jesus, mighty now to save.

(2)

Jesus is gone up on high;
    Angels come to meet their King;
Shouts triumphant rend the sky,
    While the Victor's praise they sing;
"Open now, ye heavenly gates!
'Tis the King of glory waits."

(3)

Now behold Him high enthroned!
    Glory beaming from His face;
By adoring angels owned,
    Lord of holiness and grace;
Oh, for hearts and tongues to sing,
"Glory, glory to our King!"

(4)

Jesus, on thy people shine;
    Warm our hearts and tune our tongues,
That with angels we may join,
    Share their bliss and swell their songs;
Glory, honour, praise and power,
Lord, be thine for evermore
