132. The King of Glory

1 Ye gates, lift up your heads on high;
Ye doors, that last for aye,
Be lifted up, that so the King
Of glory enter may.

Chorus:
Who is the King of glory?
Who is the King of glory?
Who is the King?
O who is the King?
Who is the King of glory?
The Lord, the Lord, the Lord of hosts,
He is the King of glory,
He is the King of glory,
He is the King, he is the King,
He is the King of glory.

2 But who of glory is the King?
The mighty Lord is this;
E'en that same Lord that great in might
And strong in battle is. [Chorus]

3 But who is he that is the King
Of glory? Who is this?
The Lord of hosts, and none but he,
The King of glory is. [Chorus]

4 Ye gates, lift up your heads on high;
Ye doors, that last for aye,
Be lifted up, that so the King
Of glory enter may. [Chorus]
