136. Come, thou almighty King

1 Come, thou almighty King,
Help us thy Name to sing,
Help us to praise!
Father all glorious,
O’er all victorious,
Come and reign over us,
Ancient of Days.

2 Come, thou incarnate Word,
Gird on thy mighty sword;
Our prayer attend;
Come and thy people bless,
And give thy word success;
And let thy righteousness
To us descend. A-men.

3 Come, Holy Comforter,
Thy sacred witness bear
In this glad hour:
Thou who almighty art,
Now rule in every heart,
And ne’er from us depart,
Spirit of power.

4 To thee, great One in Three,
Eternal praises be,
Hence, evermore!
Thy sovereign majesty
May we in glory see,
And to eternity
Love and adore.

Amen.
