- At the name of Jesus
- Every knee shall bow,
- Every tongue confess Him
- King of glory now;
- 'Tis the Father's pleasure
- We should call Him Lord,
- Who from the beginning
- Was the mighty Word.

- Mighty and mysterious
- in the highest height,
- God from everlasting,
- very Light of light.
- In the Father's bosom,
- with the Spirits blest,
- love, in love eternal,
- rest, in perfect rest.

- Humbled for a season,
- To receive a name
- From the lips of sinners
- Unto whom He came;
- Faithfully He bore it
- Spotless to the last,
- Brought it back victorious,
- When from death He passed.

- Bore it up triumphant
- With its human light,
- Through all ranks of creatures
- To the central height,
- To the throne of Godhead,
- To the Father's breast,
- Filled it with the glory
- Of that perfect rest.

- In your hearts enthrone Him;
- There let Him subdue
- All that is not holy,
- All that is not true;
- Crown Him as your Captain
- In temptation's hour,
- Let His will enfold you
- In its light and power.

- Brothers, this Lord Jesus
- Shall return again,
- With His Father's glory,
- With His angel-train;
- For all wreaths of empire
- Meet upon His brow,
- And our hearts confess Him
- King of glory now.
