Lyics

GLORY, glory to our King!
Crowns unfading wreathe his head!
Jesus is the name we sing-
Jesus, risen from the dead:
Jesus, Victor of the grave;
Jesus, mighty now to save.


Now behold him high enthroned,
Glory beaming from his face,
By adoring angels owned
God of holiness and grace.
O for hearts and tongues to sing,
Glory, glory to our King!


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, honor, praise, and power,
Lord, be thine for evermore!
