Who is this King of Glory?

1. The Lord has gone up with a mighty shout
    Of vict’ry o’er the grave;
Let all creation glorify His name
    And sing His pow’r to save!

2. Be lifted up you everlasting gates
    And let the King come in
And open up the everlasting doors
    To the almighty King.

3. Who is this king of glory, who is He?
    What is His wondrous name?
The Lord of hosts, the mighty One in war!
    We’ll tell of His great fame!

4. Who is this king of glory, who is He?
    What is His wondrous name?
The Lord of hosts, the mighty One in war!
    We’ll sing it out again!
