To Jesus Christ Our Sovereign King





To Jesus Christ, our Sovereign King,
Who is the world's salvation,
All praise and homage do we bring,
And thanks and adoration.

Refrain:
Christ Jesus Victor,
Christ Jesus Ruler!
Christ Jesus, Lord and Redeemer!
Thy reign extend, O King benign,
To every land and nation,
For in thy kingdom, Lord divine,
Alone we find salvation. (Refrain)

To thee and to thy Church, great King,
We pledge our hearts' oblation,
Until before thy throne we sing,
In endless jubilation. (Refrain)

Text: Martin B. Hellrigel (1891-1981)
Tune: ICH GLAUB An GOTT, 8.7.8.7 + Refrain (Mainz Gesangbuch, 1870)
