Lord of glory, we adore Thee

Lord of glory

we adore Thee!

Christ of God

ascended high!

Heart and soul we bow before Thee

Glorious now beyond the sky:

Thee we worship

Thee we praise—

Excellent in all Thy ways.

Anointed King

with glory crownèd

Rightful Heir and Lord of all!

Once rejected

scorned

disownèd

E’en by those Thou cam’st to call:

Thee we honor

Thee adore—

Glorious now and evermore.

Lord of life! to death once subject;

Blesser

yet a curse once made;

Of Thy Father’s heart the object

Yet in depths of anguish laid;

Thee we gaze on

Thee recall—

Bearing here our sorrows all.

Royal robes shall soon invest Thee

Royal splendors crown Thy brow;

Christ of God

our souls confess Thee

King and Sov’reign even now!

Thee we rev’rence

Thee obey—

Own Thee Lord and Christ alway.
