Author: James M. Gray Hymnal: The Voice of Thanksgiving #12 (1913) First Line: Lift up your heads, ye gates eternal Refrain First Line: Who is the King of Glory Lyrics: 1 Lift up your heads, ye gates eternal,
The King of Glory enters in,
Ascending to the Throne supernal,
The Conqueror of death and sin.
Refrain:
Who is the King of Glory?
He who overcame our enemy;
Who took our place at judgment bar,
And made His cross the Victor’s car;
He is the King of Glory!
He is the King of Glory!
2 ’Tis He who this round world hath founded,
And stablished it upon the flood;
And Satan’s hosts He hath confounded,
When on the cross He shed His blood. [Refrain]
3 Who shall approach His holy mountain,
Or stand within His holy place?
E’en he who bathed in Calvary’s fountain,
Hath been redeem’d by heaven’s grace. [Refrain]
4 The eye of faith e’en now discerneth
The King upon His Father’s Throne,
And waits the hour when He returneth
To take the kingdom for His own. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Lift up your heads, ye gates eternal]
