7753. Ye Gates, Lift Your Heads on High

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.
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—
E’en that same Lord that great in might
And strong in battle is.

2. 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.
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—
The Lord of hosts, and none but He
The King of Glory is.
