1 For those who humbly serve their king,
And loyal hearts to Jesus bring;
Who do His will, who heed His voice,
And only in His love rejoice,
Who trust in faith His guiding hand,
And meekly at His footstool stand;
Beyond the stars in regal state,
The palm and crown of glory wait.
Refrain:
When we’re freed from every stain,
When with Jesus we shall reign,
Love will be the brightest gem,
That shall grace our diadem.
2 O let us all in Jesus’ name,
The scepter and the signet claim.
And may our lot be found with them
Whose brow shall wear "The Diadem."
Our house shall be God’s resting place,
Our kingdom vast as endless space;
A crown with Heaven’s jewels bright,
And robes as spotless as the light. [Refrain]
