26. The King of Kings

1 Low the infant Saviour lies,
He appears in lowly guise;
Yet by faith we read the words
King of kings, and Lord of lords.
King of kings, and Lord of lords,
King of kings, and Lord of lords.
King of kings, and Lord of lords.

2 He who wears the crown of thorns,
He who man reviles and scorns,
Yet demand as his the words,
King of kings, and Lord of lords.

3 On the cross 'tis still the same;
Never can he yield his claim
To these ever-glorious words,
King of kings, and Lord of lords.

4 Pass'd the conflict of his love,
See, he takes his place above;
On his vesture shine the words,
King of kings, and Lord of lords.
