Christ is come, our Warrior King,
Mighty Champion great and strong,
Heaven’s Prince and Sovereign Son,
Heir to whom all worlds belong.
Lord of Lords,
Quick to bless,
All He does is righteousness.
See as now both sin and death
Die beneath His mighty breath.
Christ, the Gentle Shepherd, comes.
Lambs all know His tender care.
See them resting in His arms!
Need can never reach them there.
All around,
All within,
Love and peace are rich in Him!
Soon His love will overflow,
Giving more than sheep can know.
Christ the Shepherd, Christ the King,
Christ the precious cornerstone,
Christ our high and holy priest,
Christ who suffers for His own,
He who was
And will be,
Light and timeless mystery,
God obeyed and God adored,
Christ our Brother, Christ our Lord!
