Christ is the King! O friends rejoice;
Brothers and sisters, with one voice
Make all men know
He is your choice.
Ring our ye bells, give tongue,
give tongue;
let your most merry peal be rung,
While our exultant song is sung.
O magnify the Lord, and raise
Anthems of joy and holy praise
For Christ’s brave saints
of ancient days,
Who with a faith for ever new
Followed the King,
and round Him drew
Thousands of faithful men and true.
O Christian women, Christian men,
All the world over, seek again
The Way disciples followed then.
Christ through all ages is the same:
Place the same hope
in His great name,
With the same faith
His word proclaim.
Let love’s unconquerable might
Your scattered companies unite
In service to the Lord of light:
So shall God’s will on earth be done,
New lamps be lit, new tasks begun,
And the whole Church
at last be one.
