King All Glorious

"King All Glorious," composed by G. Vail and C. Wesley, performed by members of the United Church of God.

"King All Glorious" is a powerful song dedicated to Jesus Christ, Who is set to return as our King, restoring the earth and establishing a perfect government.

This song beautifully conveys the anticipation and reverence surrounding Christ's return. We await that event eagerly throughout the year, but especially so during the Feast of Tabernacles, which pictures His reign on earth.

We are reminded of the profound significance of this momentous event in our faith. At the return of Jesus Christ, the Kingdom of God will provide redemption, restoration and the establishment of an unparalleled era of righteousness and peace on Earth.

Rejoice, the Lord is King!

Your Lord and King adore!

Mortals, give thanks, give thanks and sing,

And triumph evermore.

The Lord is King! Rejoice! The Lord is King!

Jesus the Saviour reigns, The God of truth and love:

When He had purged, had purged our stain,

He took His seat above.

Lift up your heart! Lift up your voice!

The Lord is King!

Thou art reveal'd in victory,

O'er all the world ascended,

King all glorious! King all glorious!

Thou art reveal'd in victory.

Crown Him with many crowns,

The Lamb upon His throne,

Hark! how the heav'nly anthem drowns

All music but its own:

Awake, my soul and sing

Of Him who died for thee,

 

(chorus)

And hail Him as thy chosen King

Through all eternity. Amen.

King all glorious, Lord of Hosts almighty!

King all glorious, reign
