2. O hallelujah to our King

1 O hallelujah to our King! Ye Zion’s children, come and bring Praise, worship and submission! O magnify His wondrous might! The Lamb, which for our sins has died, Deserves our exaltation. Thank Him! Praise Him! Bring allegiance and obedience Every hour For His marv’lous strength and power. 2 His glorious kingdom shall endure. What equals it? What is so sure On earth, or yet in heaven? The messengers of His great fame In regions far and near proclaim: “Salvation shall be given!” Hear them calling, “Cease from sinning; Childhood winning, Seek His favor; Walk the pathway of the Saviour!” 3 O Lamb of God, to Thee we sing, Our gratitude and honor bring To Thee, our Lord forever. To all the people be it known That unto Jesus Christ alone Our heart and soul is given. Grant we pray Thee, ​Understanding, knowledge giving, Of salvation And Thy graceful dispensation. 4 What joy we shall in heaven see When we united are with Thee, Before Thy throne adore Thee, When perfect Thy great work shall be, When after night Thy light we see, And gathered are before Thee, Envy shall be Far removed, well beloved, All who own Thee ​Will as Bridegroom then acclaim Thee!
