1 Jesus is victor, Jesus is King;
Let men and angels, praise to him sing.
Hail ev’ry nation,
Hail all creation,
“Peace unto earth and good will to men.”

Refrain:
Radiance beaming, brightly gleaming,
Star of beauty wondrously shining,
Glory! glory! beautiful story,
Watching shepherds heard so long ago.

2 Bright was the morning when o’er the earth,
Music proclaiming, told of his birth;
Wondrous the story,
Telling his glory,
Jesus the Son unto men has come. [Refrain]

3 Monarch of ages, ruler of all;
Victor for mankind lost in the fall.
Now with oblation,
Glad adoration,
Jesus our Lord, is the name adored. [Refrain]
