Full Lyrics

1. Je- sus, King of glo- ry, throned a- bove the sky, Je- sus, ten- der Sa- vior, hear Thy child- ren cry. Par- don our trans- gres- sions, cleanse us from our sin, By Thy Spi- rit help us heav'n- ly life to win. Je- sus, King of glo- ry, throned a- bove the sky, Je- sus, ten- der Sa- vior, hear Thy child- ren cry.

2. On this day of glad- ness, Bend- ing low the knee In thine earth- ly tem- ple, Lord, we wor- ship thee; Ce- le- brate thy good- ness, Mer- cy, grace, and truth, All thy lov- ing guid- ance Of our heed- less youth.

3. For the lit- tle child- ren Who have come to thee; For the glad, bright spir- its Who thy glo- ry see; For the loved ones rest- ing In thy dear em- brace; For the pure and ho- ly Who be- hold thy face,

4. Help us ev- er stead- fast in the faith to be: In Thy Church- 's con- flicts fight- ing val- iant- ly. Lov- ing Sa- vior, streng- then these weak hearts of ours, Through Thy cross to con- quer craf- ty ev- il powers.

5. When the sha- dows leng- then, show us, Lord, Thy way; Through the dark- ness lead us to the heav'n- ly day; When our course is fin- ished, end- ed all the strife, Grant us, with the faith- ful, palms and crowns of life.
