661. Come, Our Almighty King

1 Come, our almighty King,
Help us your name to sing,
Help us to praise.
Father all glorious,
Ever victorious,
Come and reign over us,
Ancient of Days.

2 Come, O incarnate Word,
By heav'n and earth adored.
Our prayer attend;
Come and your people bless,
And give your word success;
Spirit of holiness,
On us descend.

3 Come, holy Comforter,
Your sacred witness bear
In this glad hour!
Your grace to us impart;
Now rule in ev'ry heart,
Never from us depart,
Spirit of pow'r!

4 To the great One in Three,
Eternal praises be
Hence evermore;
You sov'reign majesty
May we in glory see,
And to eternity
Love and adore!
