Our King victorious, Christ, the Son of God.
Lift high the cross, the love of Christ proclaim,
Till all the world adore His sacred name.
2. O Lord, once lifted on this glorious tree,
As Thou hast promised, draw men unto Thee.
Lift high the cross, the love of Christ proclaim,
Till all the world adore His sacred name.
3. For Thy blest cross which doth for all atone,
Creation's praises raise before Thy throne.
Lift high the cross, the love of Christ proclaim,
Till all the world adore His sacred name.
4. So shall our song of triumph ever be:
Praise to the Crucified for victory!
Lift high the cross, the love of Christ proclaim,
Till all the world adore His sacred name.
