Jesu, Thou art our King,
To me Thy succour bring.
-Hymn to Christ the King-
Jesu, Thou art our King,
To me Thy succour bring.
Christ the mighty One art Thou,
Help for all on Thee is laid:
This the word; I claim it now,
Send me now the promised aid.
High on Thy Father’s throne,
O, look with pity down!
Help, O, help! attend my call,
Captive lead captivity;
King of glory, Lord of all,
Christ, be Lord, be King to me!
I pant to feel Thy sway,
And only Thee to’ obey.
Thee my spirit gasps to meet;
This my one, my ceaseless prayer,
Make, O, make my heart Thy seat;
O, set up Thy kingdom there!
Triumph and reign in me,
And spread thy victory:
Hell and death and sin control,
Pride, and self, and every foe,
All subdue; through all my soul
Conquering and to conquer go.
