¶Lyrics / Text

Hail to the Lord's Anointed, Great David's greater Son! Hail, in the time appointed, His reign on earth begun! He comes to break oppression, To set the captive free, To take away transgression, And rule in equity. He comes with succour speedy To those who suffer wrong; To help the poor and needy And bid the weak be strong; To give them songs for sighing, Their darkness turn to light, Whose souls, condemned and dying, Were precious in his sight. He shall descend like showers Upon the fruitful earth, And joy and hope, like flowers, Spring in His path to birth. Before him on the mountains shall peace, the herald, go; And righteousness, in fountains, from hill to valley flow. To him shall prayer unceasing And daily vows ascend, His kingdom still increasing, A kingdom without end: The tide of time shall never his covenant remove; His name shall stand forever That name to us is love.
