To the name that brings salvation,
Let the nations bow the head.
Let them Knee in adoration,
When this name of names is said,
Let them pray for restoration
Of all things in Christ the head.

Rules in endless majesty,
May the kings of ev’ry nation
Now foreswear their enmity,
And with humble veneration
In the love of God agree.

Verse 3
Lord, we pray for upright rulers
Guard them surely in their need
From the vanity of power
And the emptiness of greed,
Let them see the truth of lowness,
And on justice let them feed.
