Bright morning star
King of all days
Reign in our hearts
And ride on our praise
You are crowned in majesty
Awaken us now
Set us ablaze
Let Your kingdom come
Let Your name be raised
Hear the song of the redeemed
Be exalted as we sing
[Chorus]
Hail to the King
Hail to the living Word
Let praise arise
Heaven and earth
Sing praise to the Lamb
Seated on the throne
Power and strength
Are Yours alone
Hail to the King
Hail to the King

Hail to the King
Hear the song of the redeemed

Seated on the throne
Power and strength
Are Yours alone
