164. All Praise to Him Who Reigns Above

1 All praise to Him who reigns above,
In majesty supreme,
Who gave His Son for man to die,
That He might man redeem.

2 His name above all names shall stand,
Exalted more and more,
At God the Father’s own right hand,
Where angel hosts adore.

3 Redeemer, Saviour, Friend of man,
Once ruined by the fall,
Thou hast devised salvation’s plan,
For Thou hast died for all.

4 His name shall be the Counsellor,
The mighty Prince of Peace,
Of all earth’s kingdoms conqueror,
Whose reign shall never cease.
