O Jesu, King <strong>of</strong> Glory!<br />
Our Sov'reign <strong>and</strong> our Friend!<br />
Thy throne is fix'd in Heaven,<br />
Thy kingdom hath no end:<br />
Oh now to all men, far <strong>and</strong> near,<br />
Lord, make it known, we pray,<br />
That as in Heaven all creatures here<br />
May know <strong>The</strong>e <strong>and</strong> obey.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Eastern sages bringing<br />
<strong>The</strong>ir tribute-gifts to <strong>The</strong>e,<br />
Bear witness to Thy Kingdom,<br />
And humbly how the knee;<br />
To <strong>The</strong>e the Morning Star doth lead,<br />
To <strong>The</strong>e th' inspired Word,<br />
We hail <strong>The</strong>e, Saviour in our need,<br />
We worship <strong>The</strong>e, the Lord.<br />
Ah, look on me with pity,<br />
Though I am weak <strong>and</strong> poor,<br />
Admit me to Thy kingdom<br />
To dwell there blest <strong>and</strong> sure.<br />
Oh rescue me from all my woes,<br />
And shield me with Thine arm<br />
From Sin <strong>and</strong> Death, the mighty foes<br />
That daily seek our harm.<br />
