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.

 2 

Anointed King, with glory crown�d,

   Rightful Heir and Lord of all!

Once rejected, scorned, disown�d,

   E'en by those Thou cam'st to call:

Thee we honor, Thee adore —

Glorious now and evermore.

 3 

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.

 4 

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.
