Swing open wide you ancient doors
Let the King of kings
Take His rightful place,
Make room, make way
For the King of grace.
Lift up your hands
Open up your hearts
His victory over sin
and death is ours.
Let the King of kings
take His rightful place,
Make room, make way
For our King of grace.
Who is this King of glory
Lord of power?
His name is Jesus, our risen King.
Who is this King so mighty
Lord of strength?
His name is Jesus, our risen King.
Lift up your heads, O you gates
Swing open wide you ancient doors
Let the King of kings
Take His rightful place,
Make room, make way
For the King of grace.
Who is this King of glory
Lord of power?
His name is Jesus, our risen King.
Who is this King so mighty
Lord of strength?
His name is Jesus, our risen King.
Lift up your heads, O you gates
Swing open wide you ancient doors
Let the King of kings
Take His rightful place,
Make room, make way
For the King of grace.
