Savior, Master, King!
Lord of heaven, our lives sustaining,

Yours the glory and the crown,
the high renown, the eternal name!

Son of Man on earth!

victim crucified!
death is through the cross defeated,
sinners justified: [Refrain]

high in heaven above!
sin and death and hell shall never
stifle hymns of love: [Refrain]
5 So, our hearts and voices raising
through the ages long,
ceaselessly upon you gazing,
this shall be our song: [Refrain] Scripture: Hebrews 2:9 Languages: English Tune Title: GUITING POWER
