#808

 

 1  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 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.

 

 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.
