All Glory, Laud, And Honor

 

"I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, my soul will exult in my God;
for He has clothed me with the garments of salvation, He has covered
me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom bedecks himself
with a garland, and a bride adorns herself with her jewels."
(Isaiah 61:10)

All glory, laud, and honor, 

To Thee Redeemer King,

To Whom the lips of children

Make sweet hosannas ring.

Thou art King of Israel,

Thou art David's royal Son,

Who in the Lord's name comest

The King and Blessed One.

The company of angels

Are praising Thee on high,

And mortal men and all things

Created make reply.

The people of the Hebrews

With palms before Thee went;

Our praise and prayers and anthems

Before Thee we present.

To Thee before Thy passion

They sang their hymns of praise;

To Thee, now high exalted,

Our melody we raise.

Thou didst accept their praises;

Accept the prayers we bring,

Who in all good delightest,

Thou good and gracious King.

Amen
