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 enthron'd,

Glory beaming from His face,

By adoring angels own'd

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 pow'r

Lord, be Thine for evermore!
