Verse 1
Jesus Christ, Thou King of Glory,
Born a Saviour-Prince to be,
While the angel-hosts adore Thee,
We joy in Thee,
Singing of Thy grace the story,
Praise, praise to Thee.
Verse 2
Thou the bands of death didst sever,
Conflict Thine and victory;
God is for us now and ever;
We joy in Thee. We are Thine,
Thine own for ever,
Praise, praise to Thee.
Verse 3
Thou the ransom price hast given,
Setting thus the captive free;
Thou art Lord of earth and heaven;
We joy in Thee.
Through Thy blood we stand forgiven,
Praise, praise to Thee.
Verse 4
Risen Lord! At Thy returning
Sweet and full our song shall be;
Hasting to that blissful morning
We joy in Thee.
Thou hast read our spirits' yearning,
Praise, praise to Thee.
