Hail, Triumphant King of Glory

lyricist: William Collett, 1855
Composer: Hymnal Noted, 1870

Hail

tri­umph­ant King of glo­ry

Prince of pow­er and Lord of life!

Angel hosts and men adore Thee

Who hast con­quered in the strife!

Now be­hold Eve’s strong temp­ta­tion

Healed by Ma­ry’s sin­less Son

Adam’s curse by Christ’s sal­va­tion

Eden lost by Heav­en won.

O may we

once new cre­at­ed

In the pure

life giv­ing flood

Still to Thee be con­se­crat­ed

Daily rise from sin to God.

Dead be ev­ery deed un­ho­ly

Buried each un­hal­lowed lust

Living now to Je­sus sole­ly

Rise we from cor­rupt­ion’s dust.

Crown Him then

ye hosts of glo­ry

Angels hymn the Vic­tor’s praise

Sing

ye saints

the won­drous sto­ry

Chant it in your fes­tal lays.

Blessing

hon­or

might

do­min­ion

Give to Heav’n’s eter­nal king

From whose glo­ri­ous re­sur­rect­ion

All our hopes of glo­ry spring.
