Lift Up Your Heads Ye Mighty Gates Lyrics

(d:-m:-f/s:-s/l:-t:-/d –)

1. Lift up your heads, ye mighty gates,

Behold the King of glory waits

The King of kings is drawing near,

The Saviour of the world is here.

2. O blest the land, the city blest,

Where Christ the ruler is conquest

O happy hearts and happy homes;

To whom this King of triumph comes.

3. Fling wide the portals of your hearts,

Make it a temple set apart

From earthly use of heav’ns employ,

Adorned with prayer and love and joy.

4. So come, my so ‘reign enter in,

Let new and nobler life begin

Thy Holy Spirit guide us on,

Until the glorious crown be won.
