211. Glory In the Highest

1 Hail, to the Lord’s Anointed,
Great David’s greater Son!
Hail, in the time appointed,
His reign one earth begun!

Refrain:
Glory be to God in the highest,
Peace on earth, goodwill to men!
Glory, glory! glory in the highest,
Glory be to God in the highest, glory,
Glory be to God most high!

2 He comes to break oppression,
To set the captive free,
To take away transgression,
And rule in equity. [Refrain]

3 To him shall prayer unceasing,
And daily vows ascend;
His kingdom still increasing,
A kingdom without end. [Refrain]
