Hymn/Song Information

Jesus we hail thee Israel's King And now




Jesus, we hail thee Israel's King,
And now to thee our tribute bring;
Nor do we fear to bow to thee--
They worship God who worship thee.


Hail, Israel's King, enthron'd in light!
Whose glory never shone more bright,
Than when (by treach'rous friends betray'd)
Thy foes insulting homage paid.


Then did admiring angels see
Divine forbearance, Lord, in thee;
With emphasis pronounce thee GOOD,
And heav'n and earth contrasted stood.


An object of contempt beneath,
And judg'd by men to suffer death;
By angels own'd, admir'd, ador'd,
The great, the everlasting Lord.


Reign, mighty King, for ever reign!
Thy cause throughout the world maintain;
Let Israel's King his triumphs spread,
And crowns of glory wreath his head!
