King of Righteousness

King of Righteousness

 

You are arrayed in splendor

You are clothed in majesty

You are our true defender

Who was and is and evermore shall be.

And evermore shall be our praise

Lifted up for all our days

We'll evermore your anthem raise!

You are the reigning King

Your name we shall declare

Your praises we shall sing

Your banner we shall bear

Your weight of glory on us rests

You are the King of Righteousness

You are the King of Righteousness.

 

Oh Christ we give you glory

Your power we proclaim

You won the valiant victory

So we exalt your name!

You rose again from death's dark grave

You rose and eternal life you gave

You are the Mighty King who saves

You are the Mighty King who saves
