1. Come, thou almighty King, 3. Come, holy Comforter,
help us thy name to sing, thy sacred witness bear
help us to praise! in this glad hour.
Father all glorious, Thou who almighty art,
o'er all victorious, now rule in every heart,
come and reign over us, Ancient of Days! and ne'er from us depart, Spirit of power!
2. Come, thou incarnate Word, 4. To thee, great One in Three,
gird on thy mighty sword, eternal praises be,
our prayer attend! hence, evermore.
Come, and thy people bless, Thy sovereign majesty
and give thy word success, may we in glory see,
Spirit of holiness, on us descend! and to eternity love and adore!
