Our King shall come in glory, His conqu'ring cross we hail! The pow'r of His salvation Shall never, never fail!

Sometimes the sky is darkened, and stormy clouds appear, But still, beyond the shadows, the light is bright and clear; The God of truth has spoken; His word will never fail, The Gospel of Christ Jesus shall more and more prevail:
Chorus
Our King shall come in glory, His conqu'ring cross we hail! The pow'r of His salvation Shall never, never fail!
Verse 3
The faith wherein is vict'ry in Jesus we proclaim, Tho' earthly thrones may perish still lives Emmanuel's name; Our voices swell with triumph, above earth's threat'ning gales, The Gospel of Christ Jesus thro' ev'ry age prevails:
Chorus
Our King shall come in glory, His conqu'ring cross we hail! The pow'r of His salvation Shall never, never fail!
