1 Come, Thou almighty King,
Help us Thy name to sing,
Help us to praise!
Father, all-glorious,
O'er all victorious,
Come and reign over us,
Ancient of days.
2 Jesus, our Lord, descend;
From all our foes defend,
Nor let us fall;
Let Thine almighth aid
Our sure defence be made,
Our souls on Thee by stay'd;
Lord, hear our call!
3 Come, holy Comforter,
Thy sacred witness bear
In this glad hour:
Thou, Who almighty art,
Now rule in every heart,
And ne'er from us depart,
Spirit of power.
4 To Thee, great One in Three,
The highest praises be,
Hence evermore!
Thy sovereign majesty
May we in glory see,
And to eternity
Love and adore!
