1 Lift up your heads, ye mighty gates!
Behold the King of glory waits;
The King of kings is drawing near,
The Savior of the world is here;
Life and salvation He doth bring,
Wherefore rejoice, and gladly sing:
All praise and glory be to Thee,
Lord Jesus Christ, eternally.

2 The Lord is just, a Helper tried,
Mercy is ever at His side;
His kingly crown is holiness,
His scepter, pity in distress,
The end of all our woe He brings:
Wherefore the earth is glad and sings:
All praise and glory be to Thee,
Lord Jesus Christ, eternally.

3 Oh, blest the land, the city blest,
Where Christ the Ruler is confest!
Oh, happy hearts and happy homes
To whom this King in triumph comes!
The cloudless Sun of joy He is,
Who bringeth pure delight and bliss.
All praise and glory be to Thee,
Lord Jesus Christ, eternally.

4 Fling wide the portals of your heart;
Make it a temple set apart
From earthly use for heaven's employ.
Adorned with prayer, and love, and joy:
So shall your Sovereign enter in,
And new and nobler life begin.
All praise and glory be to Thee,
Lord Jesus Christ, eternally.

5 Redeemer, come! I open wide
My heart to Thee; here, Lord, abide?
Let me thine inner presence feel,
Thy grace and love in me reveal;
Thy Holy Spirit guide us on,
Until our glorious goal be won.
All praise and glory be to Thee,
Lord Jesus Christ, eternally.
