Palms of glory, raiment bright,

Hymn Text
Verse 1
Palms of glory, raiment bright,
Crowns that never fade away,
Gird and deck the saints in light,
Priests and kings and conqu’rors they.
Verse 2
Yet the conqu'rors bring their palms
To the Lamb amidst the Throne,
And proclaim in joyful psalms
Vict’ry through His Cross alone.
Verse 3
Kings their crowns for harps resign,
Crying, as they strike the chords,
Take the Kingdom, it is Thine,
King of kings, and Lord of lords.
Verse 4
Round the Altar Priests confess,
if their robes are white as snow,
T’was the Saviour's Righteousness,
And His Blood, that made them so.
Verse 5
They were mortal too like us,
O, when we like them must die,
May our souls translated thus
Triumph, reign, and shine on high.
