Lyrics

Oh, my soul is all aflame,
How I love the pre­cious name,
Jesus, the King of Glo­ry;
Unto Him my praise I give,
For His king­dom I will live,
Jesus, the King of Glo­ry.

Refrain

Jesus, the King of Glo­ry,
Sacred in song and sto­ry,
Mighty mon­arch, king above,
Reigning in the courts of love,
Jesus, the King of Glo­ry.

He who died to set me free,
Shall my king for­ev­er be,
Jesus, the King of Glo­ry;
To His cause I’ll ev­er give,
For His king­dom I will live,
Jesus, the King of Glo­ry.

Refrain

Continents and is­lands, too,
We will sure­ly win for You,
Jesus, the King of Glo­ry;
Sea to sea and shore to shore,
Thou shalt reign for­ev­er­more,
Jesus, the King of Glo­ry.

Refrain

Earth and Heav’n unite to sing,
Glad ho­san­nas to our king,
Jesus, the King of Glo­ry;
Universal is His sway,
To Him gates of death give way,
Jesus, the King of Glo­ry.
