1All glory, laud, and honor
To Thee, Redeemer, King,
To whom the lips of children
Made sweet hosannas ring.

RefrainThou art the King of Israel,
Thou, David's royal Son,
Who in the Lord's name comest,
The King and Blessed One.

2The company of angels
Are praising Thee on high,
And mortal men and all things
Created make reply.

3To Thee, before Thy passion,
They sang their hymns of praise;
To Thee, now high exalted,
Our melody we raise.
