In power and glory has risen to reign;
He only is worthy, none else could prevail,

Glory in the highest, peace on earth!
Let your voices ring;

For Thy promise is written in bright letters that glow,
“Though your sins be as scarlet, I will make them like snow.”

In loving-kindness Jesus came,

With tender hand He lifted me;
From shades of night to plains of light,

Now on a higher plane I dwell,
And with my soul I know ’tis [...]
