GLORIOUS is the Lord Most High, Awesome is His majesty; He His sovereign sway maintains, King o’er all the earth He reigns.
Jesus is gone up on high, Takes His seat above the sky: Shout the angel-choirs aloud, Echoing to the trump of God.
Sons of earth the triumph join: Praise Him with the host divine; Emulate the heavenly powers; Their victorious Lord is ours.
Power is all to Jesus given, Power o’er hell, and earth, and Heaven; Power He now to us imparts; Praise Him with believing hearts.
Wonderful in saving power, Him let all our hearts adore; Earth and Heaven repeat the cry— ‘Glory be to God Most High!’
Charles Wesley, 1707-88
