Lyrics from A Collection of Sacred Hymns, for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, 1841

Hymn 229
C.M.
1. Lift up your heads, eternal gates,
Unfold, to entertain
The King of glory; see, he comes
With his celestial train.

2. Who is this King of glory?—who?
The Lord for strength renowned;
In battle mighty,—o'er his foes
Eternal victor crowned.

3. Lift up your heads, eternal gates,
Unfold to entertain
The King of glory;—see, he comes
With all his shining train.

4. Who is this King of glory?—who?
The Lord of hosts renowned:
Of glory he alone is King,
Who is with glory crowned.
