Hail the King of Kings

In the hall of judg­ment

see the Sav­ior stand

Deadly pow’rs of dark­ness wait on ev­ery hand;

See the guard­ing sen­try

hear the cru­el word—

Crucify Him! Cru­ci­fy your king and Lord.

Hail Him

crown Him

King of kings. Ye na­tions rise

Join the an­gels’ songs of praise

That fill the skies.

Oh

on Cal­va­ry’s brow

be­hold the Cru­ci­fied;

See the cru­el cross

the bleed­ing hands and side;

Oh

the grief and pain that paid the price of sin!

Oh

the won­drous love that sought the world to win.

See with­in the sha­dows gleam of an­gel wings

Hear the heav’n­ly word that thro’ the si­lence rings;

Look with­in the tomb; be­hold the Sav­ior rise

Hail the ris­en One

the King of earth and skies.
