All Glory, Laud and Honor

lyricist: Theodulph of Orleans, ca. 820
Composer: Melchior Teschner, 1615

All glo­ry

laud and hon­or

To Thee

Re­deem­er

King

To whom the lips of child­ren

Made sweet ho­san­nas ring.

Thou art the King of Is­ra­el

Thou Da­vid’s roy­al Son

Who in the Lord’s name com­est

The King and Bless­èd One.

The com­pa­ny of an­gels

Are prais­ing Thee on high

And mor­tal men and all things

Created make re­ply.

The peo­ple of the He­brews

With palms be­fore Thee went;

Our pray­er and praise and an­thems

Before Thee we pre­sent.

To Thee

be­fore Thy pas­sion

They sang their hymns of praise;

To Thee

now high ex­alt­ed

Our me­lo­dy we raise.

Thou didst ac­cept their prais­es;

Accept the pray­ers we bring

Who in all good de­light­est

Thou good and gra­cious King.

Thy sor­row and Thy tri­umph

Grant us

O Christ

to share

That to the ho­ly ci­ty

Together we may fare.

For hom­age may we bring Thee

Our vic­to­ry o’er the foe

That in the Con­quer­or’s tri­umph

This strain may ev­er flow.
