  1. Lift up your heads, eternal gates,
    Unfold to entertain
    The King of Glory! see! He comes
    With His celestial train.
    Who is the King of Glory? who?
    The Lord for strength renown'd;
    In battle mighty; o'er His foes
    Eternal Victor crown'd.

  2. Lift up your heads, ye gates; unfold,
    In state to entertain
    The King of Glory! see, He comes
    With all His shining train.
    Who is the King of glory? who?
    The Lord of hosts renown'd;
    Of glory He alone is King,
    Who is with glory crown'd. Amen.
