LORD OF GLORY, WE ADORE THEE
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 crowned,
Rightful Heir and
Lord of all!
Once rejected,
scorned, disowned,
E'en by those Thou
can'st to call;
Thee we honor, Thee
adore -
Glorious now and
evermore.
3. Lord of life! to
death once subject;
Blessed, 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.
