Hail the Lord of Glory

lyricist: Alice Cleator, 1901
Composer: Adam Geibel

Hail the Lord of glo­ry!

Hail the King of kings!

All the ra­di­ant hosts of Heav’n re­joice.

Angel choirs in rap­ture

Of His glo­ry sing.

Praise Him

sons of men

With heart and voice.

Opened are the gates of Heav­en (Heav­en)

Darkness

dark­ness flees away (away)

To the world a king is giv­en (giv­en);

Hail

hail the dawn of day.

Sin and gloom and sor­row

Long have held their sway

Jesus now has come un­to His own.

See the golden dawn­ing

Darkness flees away.

Mighty hosts of sin shall be o’er­thrown.

Hail the Lord of Heav­en!

Hail the King of kings!

Never shall His glo­ri­ous king­dom cease.

Angel choirs in rap­ture

Of His glo­ry sing.

Hail the splen­dor of the day of peace!
