<p>Conquering kings their titles take,<br>
From the lands they captive make;<br>
Jesus, Thine was given Thee<br>
For a world Thou madest free.</p>
<p>Not another name is given<br>
Power possessing under heaven,<br>
Strong to call dead souls to rise<br>
And exalt them to the skies.</p>
<p>That which Christ so hardly wrought,<br>
That which He so dearly bought,<br>
That salvation, mortals say,<br>
While ye madly cast away?</p>
<p>Rather gladly for that Name<br>
Bear the cross, endure the shame;<br>
Joyfully for Him to die<br>
Is not death but victory.</p>
<p>Jesus, if Thou condescend<br>
To be called the sinner&#8217;s Friend,<br>
Ours the joy and glory be<br>
Thus to make our boast of Thee.</p>
<p>Glory to the Father be,<br>
Glory, virgin born, to Thee,<br>
Glory to the Holy Ghost,<br>
Ever from the heavenly host.</p>
