King of glory, throned on high,
God whose kingdom cannot die;
Throne of God for ever set,
Righteous sceptre reigneth yet;

He that low in manger lay
Reigns, enthroned in endless day;
Bears the everlasting rod--
Newborn, yet the ancient God!

Now He reigns! The King is crowned!
Throne of God no end hath found!

Forth He prospers, forth He rides,
Truth and meekness guard His sides;
Righteousness His way makes plain,
Endless ages own His reign;

Right His hand shall teach the proud,
Terrors thundered from the cloud;
He that came in lowliness
Reigns in truth and righteousness!

Now He reigns! The King is crowned!
Throne of God no end hath found!
