146. Unfold, Ye Portals

Unfold, unfold, unfold,
Ye portals everlasting,
Unfold, unfold, unfold,
Ye portals everlasting,
With welcome to receive
Him ascending on high.
Behold the King of glory!
He mounts up thro’ the sky,
Back to heav’nly mansions hasting,
Unfold, unfold, unfold,
For lo! the King comes nigh!
But who is He, the King of glory!
He who death overcame, the Lord in battle mighty,
But who is He, the King of glory!
Of hosts He is the Lord; of angels and pow’rs;
The King of glory is the King of the saints.
Unfold, unfold, unfold,
Ye portals everlasting,
Unfold, unfold, unfold,
Ye portals everlasting,
With welcome to receive
Him ascending on high.
Behold the King of glory!
He mounts up thro’ the sky,
Back to heav’nly mansions hasting,
Unfold, unfold, unfold,
For lo! the King comes nigh!
