Lift up your heads, ye gates that long endure!

The King of Glory comes victoriously!

Who is the King of Glory? He, be sure,

The Lord, renowned in battle! This is He!

Lift up your heads, ye gates! He stands before ye;

Oh ye æonian gates, uplifted be,

And make to Him wide entrance whom adore ye.

Who is the King ye herald? who but He,

The Lord of Hosts? Who else is King of Glory?

J. A. Heraud.
