<poem>
1. Come, Thou almighty King,
Help us Thy name to sing,
Help us to praise!
Father allglorious,
O'er all victorious,
Come and reign over us,
Ancient of days!
2. Come, Thou incarnate Word,
Gird on They mighty sword,
Our prayer attend!
Come, and Thy people bless,
And give Thy word success:
Spirit of holiness,
On us descend!
3. Come, Holy Comforter,
Thy sacred witness bear,
In this glad hour!
Thou, who almighty art,
Now rule in ev'ry heart,
And ne'er from us depart,
Spirit of pow'r!
