1  Lo, the glory! Lo, the splendor!

       Heaven's Kingdom manifest!

    And its glorious King, our Master,

       Is by God's appointment blest.

    Once in flesh He came so lowly,

       Hated and despised by man;

    Now He comes again in glory

       To fulfill the Kingdom plan.

 2  Going to receive the Kingdom

       From His God, the Ancient of Days,

    Now He cometh with the Kingdom

       And its glorious, ruling rays.

    He's "the Stone" which breaks the nations

       Into pieces lowliest,

    Which "a mountain great" becometh

       As the Kingdom manifest.

 3  Lo, the earth, all lands and kingdoms,

       By the Lord and Christ possessed;

    Earth beneath their sovereign ruling

       Will be full of peace and rest.

    No more war and no more hatred

       'Twixt the nations will there be;

    But God's knowledge shall suffuse them

       As the waters fill the sea.

 4  All the Christian overcomers

       Shall with Christ in glory reign,

    And the remnant saved of Israel

       Then God's priesthood shall obtain.

    As God's people shall the nations

       'Neath their rule and teaching be,

    And a glorious restoration

       All creation then shall see.

 5  Satan will be bound and banished;

       From his rule will earth be freed;

    With Christ's sovereign reign and headship

       Earth will then be blessed indeed.

    All to Christ will then be subject,

       To His pow'r and to His will;

    As the Head and Center glorious,

       He God's purpose will fulfill.
