Refrain:
Hail, Mighty Victor, hail,
Hail, Mighty Victor, hail,
Hail, Mighty Victor, hail, hail,
Hail, Mighty Victor, hail.

1 Unto Him that liveth,
Arisen, ascended, exalted, enthroned,
Be power and dominion
Forever and ever.
All the hosts of Heaven,
Amazed, enraptured, exulting, adoring,
With endless praise shall crown Him Victorious King. [Refrain]

Hail, Mighty Victor, hail,
Hail, Mighty Victor, hail,
Hail, Mighty Victor,
Hail, hail, hail, Mighty Victory, hail,
Hail, hail, hail, Mighty Victory, hail.
