Christ is King, O heavens hail him!

8.7.8.7.

Christ is King, O heavens hail him!
Angel hosts, his heralds, sing.
”Saviour, Lord” with joy proclaim him:
Christ the everlasting king!

Christ is King, O earth obey him!
Wind and waves attend his call
Rocks and stars join to acclaim him
Christ the maker, King of all.

Christ is King, O demons fear him!
He shall conquer in the strife.
”Son of God” they trembling name him
Christ the mighty king of life.

Christ is King! O, sinners, love him
Bow with gladness to your king
Take his yoke, as master claim him
Praise him! Lift your voice and sing!
