1 O hail today our blessèd king,
King Jesus;
Salvation unto all doth bring,
King Jesus;
He has come to right all wrong,
He is mighty, He is strong;
Raise to Him your triumph song,
King Jesus.

Refrain:
Hail today King Jesus,
The meek and lowly Jesus,
Let the praise of earth and sky,
Echo to His throne on high,
His throne on high.

2 For He is lowly, He is meek,
King Jesus;
He lifts the fallen, helps the weak,
King Jesus;
Sent not to the chosen few,
Sent to Gentile and to Jew,
Glorious things our king will do,
King Jesus. [Refrain]

3 His reign shall never, never cease,
King Jesus;
One reign of everlasting peace,
King Jesus;
And His name will dearer grow,
Soon all waiting worlds shall know
Him who loves His people so,
King Jesus. [Refrain]
