All-Powerful Procession

orchidee



Tune: St Theodulph

('All glory, laud, and honour')

Psalm 24

*******

Chorus

Be lifted up, entry gates

The King of glory waits

To come into His city

A great procession be

 

You are the King of glory

The earth, LORD, it all be

Yours, and too all its fullness

With your gifts you it bless - Chorus

 

The world, and all who dwell in

It, He knows them, each kin

He the Creator of all

His wonders we recall - Chorus

 

For He made seas and dry land

All fashioned by His hand

And so who shall there ascend

His hill, His matters tend? - Chorus

 

They that have clean hands, pure heart

They not from Him depart

Have not followed vanity

Nor sworn deceitfully - Chorus

 

Such shall His blessing receive

They trust Him the believe

Righteousness and salvation

The LORD gives to each one - Chorus

 

Who is the King of glory?

The LORD of hosts He be

Strong and mighty in battle

He Victor, conquers all - Chorus
